The Kurppa family lives in a pastel-toned Finnish suburb. Kari dreams of striking it rich by selling soap and vitamins; his wife, Pirjo, pregnant with their fourth child, aspires to be a model. Their kids—Jani (6), Jonna (4), Sonja (3)—join them in their cluttered home. With limited work and lives spent mostly indoors, every day feels like an endless chaotic Sunday.
