MUBI, the global film distributor, streaming service and production company, is delighted to announce that Aki Kaurismäki’s (Le Havre, The Other Side of Hope) Golden Globe-nominated Fallen Leaves, will be available to buy on Blu-ray and DVD from 15 April 2024.
Award-winning filmmaker Aki Kaurismäki makes a masterful return with Fallen Leaves, a timeless, hopeful and satisfying love story that won the Jury Prize at the 2023 Cannes Film Festival.
Set in modern-day Helsinki, the film tells the story of Ansa and Holappa, two lonely souls whose chance meeting at a local karaoke bar is beset by numerous hurdles. From lost phone numbers to mistaken addresses, alcoholism and a charming stray dog, the pair’s path to happiness is as bittersweet as it is ultimately delightful.
Shot with Kaurismäki’s typically playful, idiosyncratic style and deadpan sense of humour, this tender romantic tragicomedy is both a loving tribute to the filmmaker’s beloved contemporaries and a timely reminder of the potency of movie-going from one of cinema’s living legends.
Special Features:
- Q&A with Alma Pöysti & Jussi Vatanen
- “The World According to Aki Kaurismäki” booklet
- Six exclusive art cards (Blu-ray only)
FALLEN LEAVES IS ALSO AVAILABLE TO STREAM ON MUBI AND AVAILABLE TO OWN FROM ALL DIGITAL PLATFORMS
