Uuno Turhapuro muuttaa maalle

In the sun‑drenched stretch of Finnish countryside, a family uprooted from city life finds its new home perched on the edge of a surprisingly bureaucratic dilemma. Uuno Turhapuro arrives just as his father‑in‑law, the self‑important Councillor Tuura, has settled into a sprawling mansion that promises a fresh start, only to learn that a planned road may cut straight through the property. The clash between pastoral charm and municipal ambition sets the stage for a comedy that teeters between gentle satire and outright slapstick.

The Turhapuro household is a lively knot of personalities. Elisabeth has already taken the first step toward independence, leaving a note that hints at deeper fissures beneath the family’s veneer. Mrs. Tuura shuffles between supportive spouse and pragmatic partner, while the local men—Härski Hartikainen and Sörsselssön—add a dose of mischievous ingenuity to the mix. Their presence promises a series of improvised schemes, side‑by‑side with the everyday absurdities that seem to follow Uuno wherever he goes.

Against this backdrop, the looming road project becomes a catalyst for the film’s bright, chaotic energy. Councillor Tuura fights to preserve his newly acquired retreat, a battle that draws Uuno into unexpected roles as he navigates marriage, family expectations, and the idiosyncrasies of rural life. The tone remains light‑hearted and buoyant, with each character’s quirks amplifying the humor of an otherwise ordinary struggle. In a world where political meetings can happen in a village square and a simple measurement can spark hilarity, the story invites viewers to revel in the delightful nonsense of a family trying to keep its ground—both literally and figuratively—while the countryside watches on.
