A powerful classic comedy about the power struggle between master and servant!
Mr. Puntila and His Servant Matti (1979), directed by Matti Kassila, is a colorful and humorous adaptation of Bertolt Brecht and Hella Wuolijoki's famous play. The film is set in the Häme countryside and tells the story of a wealthy landlord, Johannes Puntila, who has two completely different personalities.
When Puntila is sober, he is a tough, ruthless and ruthless businessman. But when the master drinks "the wise water", he becomes a friend to everyone, a kind-hearted and equality-preaching companion. His loyal and cynically sensible servant Matti has to navigate between these two worlds, trying to keep things in order.
