The potato farmer couple's fresh relationship is based on openness and honesty. Petri, a fifty-something man who has come to terms with his bisexuality, is learning to be true to himself and honest with his partner. Petri's desire to fulfill his own passions raises new questions for Anu about her own desires and demands in their relationship. Beneath the empty landscapes of the north lies a world of men that they have tried to keep secret from their spouses, the surrounding community, and, to some extent, even themselves.
