The Blind Man Who Did Not Want to See Titanic

Finland 2021 | 82 minutes | Finnish | Hebrew, English subtitles

Jaakko is blind and disabled and uses a wheelchair, but his passion for life has never withered. The brightest moment of his day is the phone conversation with Sirpa, a woman he met online. When Sirpa gets difficult news, Jaakko decides he must go to her immediately, even if none of his usual caretakers can accompany him. Teemu Nikki wrote this unique romantic thriller - smart and funny and entirely original - for actor Petri Poikolainen, who has MS and is himself blind and disabled.
