What it’s about. Joulubileet (The Christmas Party) might well be the closest to the ultimate cult movie that the Finnish film industry has ever gotten. The third directorial effort of Jari Halonen, a clearly distinctive voice in the local filmmaking landscape, is a timeless, absurd and at times completely insane piece of masculine comedy rough not only on the edges, but to the core. A story of Mike, just out of prison, and his buddies throwing a Christmas party under the most obscure circumstances is filled with juicy dialogue and plot twists that will definitely make your jaw drop – and have you chuckle for days after.
Who’s in it. Die Weihnachtsfeier stars Jorma Tommila as Bona Merenkylä, Antti Reini as Mike Merenkylä, Rauno Juvonen as Joukka and Oiva Lohtander as Hämäläinen, among others.
