Concluding cult filmmaker Aki Kaurismaki's 'Loser Trilogy' that began with Drifting Clouds and The Man Without A Past, Lights In The Dusk is a blackly comic cautionary tale of loneliness an d exploitation.

Janne Hyytiainen plays Koistinen, a shy and awkward night watchman shunned by his colleagues and whose well-meaning actions are foiled at every turn. His luck seems to change when he meets the glamorous blonde Mirja (Maria Jarvenhelmi), but too late finds himself helplessly embroiled in a world of criminal deceit and lies.

Beautifully shot, with droll performances and an eclectic soundtrack, Kaurismaki's film combines shades of film noir with his trademark bone-dry humour, creating a typically distinctive deadpan masterpiece.
