    • Synopsis
    • A comedy about a man who is left alone with a baby. "Goodbye sex, bar nights and writing gigs. Welcome puke wipes, mother's milk substitute and Teletubbies. But how the hell am I going to find those ancient mommy genes?" Marriage. Mortgage. Car. Antti Pasanen is working as a journalist. His life is on the right tracks; his wife Pia is just about to give birth. Until – in the front of the Maternity Hospital everything changes. Antti, with the sniffling baby in his arms, sees the taxi's tail lights fading out. Pia is sitting on the backseat; their future as a nuclear family is disappearing. The new life with the baby's terms begins and Antti has no idea what that's all about.
