Pekka Jalkanen, a Finnish modern music composer, begins to compose his Russian Concerto – a concerto of longing for home – in his childhood’s home, near Russian border. At the same time, his mind makes a trip to Mother Russia and to Balkans to collect materials for his upcoming work. Analysing reasons for economical and cultural chaos in the new united Europe, the composer finally arrives at the tomb of Andrei Tarkovsky, a Russian master of world’s cinema, near Paris, to respect the memory of the auteur who spoke about longing in his films.
