Michael and Us: Meet Me in Helsinki

Your coworkers are spying on you. Your boss won't let you keep the expired food. The coffeeshop is charging you an arm and a leg to rent a laptop. In Aki Kaurismäki's funny and wonderful FALLEN LEAVES (2023), can a budding romance survive the everyday indignities of life under capitalism? PLUS: What would a British West Wing look like?

Michael and Us is a podcast about political cinema and our crumbling world hosted by Will Sloan and Luke Savage.
