This gentle tragicomedy is the fourth part of Kaurismäki’s working-class quartet, following “Shadows in Paradise,” “Ariel” and “The Match Factory Girl,” which The Match Factory, the company, is named after.
The film tells the story of two lonely people who meet each other by chance in the Helsinki night. They then try to re-find each other: the first, only, and ultimate love of their lives. Their path toward this goal is clouded by the man’s alcoholism, lost phone numbers, not knowing each other’s names or addresses, and life’s tendency to place obstacles in the way of those seeking their happiness.
Ahead of the festival, The Match Factory has secured sales in several territories: France , Japan , Benelux , Baltics , Ex-Yugo , Greece , Hungary , Israel , Portugal , Sweden and Switzerland . Pandora Film is releasing the film in German cinemas and B-Plan Distribution in Finland.Cannes marks a record for The Match Factory of having a lineup with four titles in Competition.
“Lost in the Night” by Amat Escalante plays in Premiere and “The Sweet East” by Sean Price Williams plays at Directors Fortnight.
