A modest Finnish family suddenly finds itself at the center of a grand cinematic scheme when a burgeoning film company decides to turn their everyday life into a series of motion pictures. The patriarch, ever practical, agrees to the project with a mix of bewilderment and quiet confidence, while the whole household buzzes with the novelty of becoming on‑screen heroes.
To satisfy the producers, the family embarks on an unexpected training regimen: the father perfects high‑jump feats that could break national records, and the mother dashes the hundred‑metre sprint in a sleek athletic kit, attracting the attention of sports officials. Meanwhile, city officials debate whether Helsinki should be emptied for the shoot, and a bizarre demand for hundreds of cats turns the household’s yard into a chaotic menagerie.
All this preparation unfolds against a backdrop of newspaper squabbles, university debates, and the looming presence of a stern adjudicator. As the first cameras roll, the Kiljus clan braces for a whirlwind of hilarity and unexpected fame.
