Self-Made Paradise

Deutschland 2007 Dokumentarfilm

Documentary film about five Finnish bohemians who have set up their own little worlds in the most remote regions of their home country where they pursue their passions and vocations. The film portrays yoga fan Vejo, eccentric photographer Kari, car mechanic Seppo, farmer Niilo, and the enigmatic shaman Johannes – all of them bizarre, yet strong characters who have managed to free themselves from the constraints of modern life to a certain degree.
