June, 1993. Helsinki. Over 50,000 people witness the Aki Kaurismäki-formed rock group, Leningrad Cowboys, performing with 100 singers, 40 musicians, and 20 dancers from the Alexandrov Red Army Chorus and Dance Ensemble. From start to finish, the concert is a roaring success.
With two movies, a handful of shorts, and a healthy discography under their belts, there was only one thing left on the Leningrad Cowboys’ bucket list: to go on tour. Across an hour of outlandish rock ‘n’ roll covers, Aki Kaurismäki’s raucous concert film captures the band in all their loopy glory.
