Synopsis
Jed's life is perfect, almost too perfect. Successful parents, lots of friends and success at school promise him a rosy future. However, Jed decides to leave it all behind. He gets on a train and ends up in a small, dead-end town in Finland. Money runs out and reality bites but Jed does not give up. Finally he finds a job as a garbage truck driver's assistant. He constantly keeps running into Lulu, a prickly and quick-witted girl, and her pretty friend Salla. When Lulu hears what Jed does for a living, she tells him that he is just one more moron in the town. Gradually, without either of them admitting it, the relationship changes from bickering, picking on each other and a battle of wills to friendship and love.
