Yksi halusta, toinen rakkaudesta
Three couples, or at least a group of people whose relationships are far more complex than they appear, gather for dinner at a country manor. As old flames, unspoken pasts, and new dreams meet under the same roof, a party game quickly takes unexpected turns. Written by Kari Heiskanen, *Yksi halusta, toinen rakkaudesta* (“One for Desire, One for Love”) is a biting, comedic drama about human relationships, the flexibility of morality, the concealment of truth, and how far one is willing to go to save their own skin. Everyone has something to hide. One tries to save their career and marriage, another atones for past mistakes through art, a third hungers for power and purity, and someone finally dares to break silent taboos.
