Reviiri / Verge

Synopsis

Sampo brings to show his girlfriend Heli for the first time to his parents' pearl wedding party. As the evening goes, the couple ends up at the karaoke point and Sampo pulls Heli, who hates singing, to the stage. The viewer does not see the presentation. Heli doubts Sampo's conviction that the singing went well. Sampo's evasive behavior begins to torture Heli, and soon it will be revealed that Sampo has lied to her about something else as well. The whole family witnesses the deterioration of the bond between the young couple. Desperate Heli sings again and Sampo, who has been put to the corner, has to admit that he does not tolerate Heli's voice. When the party is over and the couple goes to bed, everything has changed.
