Trailer For Gritty Finnish Drama Man’s Job
Posted by Todd Brown at 11:35am.
Posted in Trailer Alerts , Drama, Continental Europe & Russia.
The latest picture from the company that produced Jade Warrior, Man’s Job looks to be one hard piece of dramatic work from Finland. The beautiful cinematography offsets one hell of a depressing story about a married father of three forced to turn to a life as a male escort to support his family.
Feeling ashamed about his failure and worried about his wife’s mental health, Juha decides to keep the fact that he got fired a secret. He spends his days on a remote service station thinking about a way out and the growing web of lies that he is slowly weaving.
Soon the desperate Juha finds himself, completely naked, brushing the hair of a woman he has never met before. He also finds himself earning in two hours what he used two earn in two days at his old job. With the help of his friend Olli, Juha, the father of three small children, begins to sell his body in earnest.
Juha’s shame and lies grow, but the money helps him cope with the downside of his new profession. And as long as wife Katja doesn’t touch her antidepressants, everything is fine.

Remember when the world gasped as Alan Moore took goofy superhero tropes and applied them to the real world in Marvelman? It looks like those Finns are trying to do the same thing with the Deuce Bigalow franchise

Ssssuuuuure....I’d be overwhelmed with guilt and shame if I was bangin’ hot chicks for a living.

Yeah, but why would hot chicks need the services of a prostitute? You can briefly see it in the trailer, but he bangs a girl with downs syndrome in the film.
