Synopsis

Juha has a very successful career as a comedian with a sell-out stand-up show all about his childhood and how his experiences lead him to where is today. Audiences come from far and wide to hear Juha's hilarious stories about crazy PE teachers and his performance as the class jester but the real story is one Juha is unable to tell the audience because it is not a story of comedy but one of tragedy and Juha must find a way through his memories to redemption.
