About Lights in the Dusk
Outcast by his co-workers and living alone, Koistinen is a security guard who works the night shift in a luxury shopping mall in Helsinki. But when icy blonde Mirja approaches him, the lonely Koistinen falls helplessly for her, unaware she is manipulating him for her criminal boyfriend.
Directed by Aki Kaurismäki, Lights in the Dusk leans on a strong ensemble — Janne Hyytiäinen, Maria Järvenhelmi, Maria Heiskanen — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2006.
