a| Pertti, Toni, Kari and Sami, members of Finnish band Pertti Kurikka’s Name Day, suffer from “punk syndrome”, as they jokingly call it. With their own characteristic humour, the band adheres to the punk ethos, adopting a DIY approach in the face of limitations and obstacles. The film maps the development of the band, from early rehearsals through a series of gigs to the recording of an EP. The musicians also set out on a tour of clubs and festivals where, despite scraps between them and various disappointments, they find longed-for understanding among people from different subcultures. Through their music, the four friends break down prejudices and the boundaries of “normality” while the film explores the lives of the mentally handicapped. Their lyrics focus on both societal problems and everyday experiences: what an utter waste of time it is to go for a pedicure, or what it’s like to live in sheltered housing. A powerful account of the wanderings of handicapped musicians who decide to pursue their own non-mainstream lifestyle.
