Plot

Fifteen desperate men named Frank band together to escape from the repressive Kallio district of Helsinki.

Taking advantage of the night, their goal is to reach the magical seaside district of Eira.

Reception

An absurdist comedy,[2] the film is considered to be a satirical cult classic.[3] Caryn James of The New York Times described the film as "gleefully absurdist", adding that Kaurismäki "takes over the American gangster film and flavors it with his improbable humor".[4] Others have drawn connections between The Saimaa Gesture and Calamari Union and the Finnish punk movement.[5]
