Synopsis:

The diary of a drunk: Friday, May 12th – no recollection whatsoever… Juha is an over-the-top hedonist, a waster, a destructive drunk – and he is having the time of his life. He fights, screws, drinks like there is no tomorrow. He thinks nothing of waking up in his dirty underwear, covered in blood and puke and wondering just what has happened to him in the last 24 hours. This is his life, and it's a right old laugh. But the law doesn't take kindly to such behavior and eventually they catch up with him, forcing him to attend a local AA group meeting. It’s there that he discovers bad-teeth Tiina, who he instantly falls in love with. Juha has a choice to make: give up the bottle, his buddies and his fatal self-indulgence, or take on the woman of his dreams.
