- Synopsis
- Varpu is a 12-year-old girl who doesn’t know who her father is. The relationship between her and her mother, Siru, is good and warm, but there’s one flaw: Siru doesn’t treat Varpu as a child, but as her equal. For this reason, Varpu hasn’t had a normal childhood. One day, when mother and daughter have a fight, Varpu steals a car and drives across the country to Oulu, in northern Finland, to find her father. The encounter with her father triggers something in Varpu and Siru's life; it helps them realize what their real roles are.
