Finland released, PAL/Region 2 DVD: it WILL NOT play on standard US DVD player. You need multi-region PAL/NTSC DVD player to view it in USA/Canada: LANGUAGES: Finnish ( Dolby Digital 5.1 ), Danish ( Subtitles ), English ( Subtitles ), Finnish ( Subtitles ), Norwegian ( Subtitles ), Swedish ( Subtitles ), ANAMORPHIC WIDESCREEN (1.85:1), SPECIAL FEATURES: Commentary, Featurette, Interactive Menu, Making Of, Music Video, Scene Access, Trailer(s), SYNOPSIS: It's no exaggeration that Pearls and Pigs's UK premiere at the 2004 Edinburgh Film Festival was a success. After the early slow start: middling comic episodes introducing small-town (Joensuu) small-time crook Erkki Hirvonen (Perka Valkeejarvi), a single father who operates a bootlegging business with his four uncouth twentysomething sons. Namely good-looking nice-guy Lade (Mikko Leppilampi), amiably stoned Timo (Unto Helo), volatile tough-nut Ruho aka 'Bulk' (Timo Lavikainen) and nightclubbing gay hedonist Pujo aka 'Boy' (Jimi Paakallo), the picture finally finds its feet when the hapless Erkki is jailed and the lads must produce a large amount of Euros to pay off 'Pig' and 'Sty' - local criminal bigwigs they've inadvertently offended. As if this wasn't enough, the boys find themselves in a Three Men and a Little Lady type scenario when their blonde-moppet half-sister Saara (Amanda Pilke) is dumped on their doorstep by her hard-bitten prostitute mother (Outi Maenpaa). But when Saara reveals unsuspected talents as an angel-voiced singer, the brothers waste no time in entering her for the lucrative televised 'Superkid' contest. Complications ensue.
