Solitaire Dance (2021)

In the ruins of communality a growing number of people are left alone. Emmamaria (30) tries to cope on her own with two small children. Emilia (24) spends her time driving around the streets of a small Finnish town. Lasse (80) divorced his wife after a long marriage and spends his days playing cards and his nights writing poems. They all face obstacles trying to get away from the situation. However, through dance, poetry, sheer coincidence and persistence, their stories develop further from loneliness. By focusing on their everyday experience with emotional and social loneliness the film zooms out to a wider problem of structural loneliness in the western societies.
