The Temptation of St. Tony, notamment inspiré de grandes oeuvres surréalistes, met en scène l’histoire d’un homme d’âge mûr qui se retrouve dans le même genre de forêt obscure que celle que décrit Dante. Un problème inhabituel s’immisce dans sa vie calme et modérément aisée : une question de morale. Est-il possible d’être une bonne personne ? Qu’est-ce que cela signifie ? Qu’est-ce qu’on y gagne ? Dans son parcours vers une conscience plus tranquille mais dans une réalité de plus en plus compliquée, Tony rencontre des spécimens typiques de la société estonienne actuelle et vit des aventures excitantes et amusantes. Lentement et comme inévitablement, il perd son emploi, sa famille, son sens de la réalité, et se perd lui-même.

Début des années 1960. Copains depuis l'âge de 7 ans, Niila et Matti vivent à Pajala, bourgade paumée du nord de la Suède. Il ne s'y passe jamais rien, sauf quelques tensions entre Suédois et Finlandais de souche, la majorité d'entre eux parlant un étrange volapük. Ici, les "vrais hommes" lèvent bien le coude, chassent l'élan et font beaucoup d'enfants qu'ils n'hésitent pas à battre pour leur apprendre le respect de Dieu. Tout change le jour où Niila échange la bible de sa grand-mère contre un 45-tours des Beatles. Avec leur nouveau professeur de musique, lui et Matti décident de monter un groupe de rock... Une tragi-comédie exquise et très rythmée, qui joue sur une multitude de registres : on y trouve à la fois le côté chronique adolescente du Péril jeune de Cédric Klapisch, le psychédélisme d'Emir Kusturica, le laconisme d'Aki Kaurismaki et les doutes d'Ingmar Bergman. L'occasion aussi de revoir la sublime Kati Outinen, qui interprète la mère de Niila.

The commune's dynamics are significantly shaken when Göran's sister, Elizabeth, leaves her violent husband Rolf and moves in, bringing her two children Eva and Stefan.
