This is one funny film. It was a cult flick when I was in high school and shown quite a many times in TV, too. It coined some flying phrases and featured the later funk-singer Sam Huber in the main role.
It's about Ripa, a lazy, fat good-for-nothing who during his adventures drifts deeper and deeper into trouble in Helsinki alternative/underworld scene. The main idea slightly reminds Scorsese's "After Hours" but this is more chaotic and off-kilter. I actually don't remember the plot so well. There are scenes where Ripa is almost persuaded into hard-core porn film scene with a guy in leather, and escapes only when butter is started to get swept on his rectum... he also gets amorous with a drunken married woman, who tells Ripa he should shoot his hubby. Which Ripa does in a drunken mayhem, ending the romance brutally.
Black and white, real funny at times, I hope?!! since I haven't seen it in years...
