My Sailor, My Love

WORLD PREMIERE AT TORONTO INTERNATIONAL FILM FESTIVAL/ TIFF22 - FINNISH PREMIERE 30.9.

A retired sailor falls in love with his home aid. His middle age-aged daughter does not approve the relationship. She feels like she´s losing a father she never had. My Sailor, My Love is a heart-warming drama on timeless love and forgiveness by Golden Globe nominated and Oscar shortlisted director Klaus Härö.

Howard, a retired sailor and widow, lives in a house by the sea. His adult daughter Grace hires a carer for her father, a lady in her mature years, Annie. Recluse and stubborn, Howard rejects Annie’s company, but eventually opens his heart and gives his final love a chance.
Grace has her own crisis to unravel and finds her father’s romance difficult. Her father’s new love reminds her of the affection she missed, as a child and now again as an adult. Annie must face the complex father-daughter relationship, while Howard and Grace must realise their own imperfections.

Starring James Cosmo, Bríd Brennan and Catherine Walker. Written by Kirsi Vikman and Jimmy Karlsson, who also wrote Härö’s Mother of Mine.

The Film is produced by Kai Nordber and Kaarle Aho, Making Movies Oy., and David Collins, Samson Films.
