Risto and Arto, the two least-expensive hearse drivers on the market, are watching their lives collapse around them. Risto is addicted to gambling and his marriage is in crisis. Arto recently discovered that he was born with 85% less brain than the average person, and as a result has been abandoned by everyone. Risto, the heartless man, and Arto, the brainless man, end up risking everything to win back what they have lost.
