TIMEMAN (ORIG. AIKAMIES) 2022, 104 MIN

​

An ordinary day of a night club bouncer comes to a halt when he runs into a familiar customer - whom he hasn’t met before. The encounter drives both his heart and mind at stake - when the forbidden time travel game becomes a reality. 

 

Samppa Batal’s award winning ”Timeman” is a romantic and harrowing story about the infinite human need to feel loved.
