Euthanizer

2017 | 85 min | K-16 | comedy, drama, Trilleri

If your pet is sick or suffering, Veijo Haukka offers it a merciful death. He believes that animals should not have to live in pain for the sake of humans. Petri Kettu brings a dog to Veijo to be put down, and the man accepts the task as he usually does. But this time, Veijo’s heart softens, and he decides to keep the dog as his own. Almost without noticing, his faith in humanity begins to return, and even love finds a small place in his heart.

However, when the dog that was supposed to be dead is discovered to be alive, a conflict of principles between the two men escalates into violent consequences — leaving the dog as the only innocent one in the story.

The film won Jussi Awards for Best Screenplay and Best Music.
