Seventeen-year-olds Miku and Elias find themselves, and each other, during a summer in the Finnish countryside.
Acting
Kauppila and Lehtinen's painful, real chemistry.

Finnish countryside: beautiful, suffocating, inescapable.
Director
Nils-Erik Ekblom
Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Rare Finnish queer cinema that rejects the nation's typical deadpan irony for something messier and more vulnerable.
The title's Finnish wordplay—'pihalla' means both 'screwed' and 'outside'—perfectly captures Miku's exclusion from both his family and Elias's world.
