Synopsis:

Portrait of a Man intimately and sensitively explores a Finnish man's role in a changing world. A combination of divorce, single parenthood, and alcoholism contributed to Kalle's father's suicide. Kalle is the same age as his father when he died, and he's in crisis; he doesn't want to end up like his dad. Kalle starts therapy and the painful process of reconciling his family's legacy; the film takes us right along with him on this emotionally powerful journey. Portrait of a Man is a poignant depiction of how contemporary man can break free from traditional behavioral patterns.

PORTRAIT OF A MAN is a rough but beautiful documentary film about the crisis of a man in his forties and his desire for a better life; its a story of parenthood, alcohol, Finnish man and his desire for love. PORTRAIT OF A MAN is also an unusually intimate depiction of the relationship between the father and his son. Despite the seriousness of the topic PORTRAIT OF A MAN includes black humor and situational comedy
