After his decorated service in WWII, Finnish artist Touko Laaksonen (Pekka Strang) settled into an ad agency career... as well as an unhappy and closeted civilian life. However, the distinctively idolized beefcake illustrations that were his one outlet for expression would ultimately bring him recognition and travel beyond his country's borders, and carve him an enduring niche in global gay culture. Fascinating biopic also stars Lauri Tilkanen, Jessica Grabowsky, Taisto Oksanen.
