This depiction of four urban youths and their excursion to the countryside was among the most popular films of the 1960s in Finland. It tackles a theme that is reminiscent of the German "Menschen am Sonntag" of 1929. It showcases a brilliant cast of four actors who created a fun, but melancholy, portrayal of youth, sexual liberation and the obstacles to love. For the young people in this Finnish film, the countryside is no longer a place to work or live, but an embodiment of natural freedom.
