THE MAN WHO DIED

Jaakko lives a plain and comfortable life as a mushroom entrepreneur selling Finland’s wild mushrooms to the gourmet tables of Tokyo. All that changes when he finds out he is dying after being slowly poisoned. Not sure if he may have two months or two weeks or two minutes to live, Jaako goes on the quest to solve his own murder before he dies. On the brink of death he investigates his own murder, saves his family business and for the first time feels like he is truly alive.
