The time after WWII was not easy for Finns. Many people had to move to new locations, usually even to stangers' homes. This movie tells about two kids who have to do so. It's also a crime story but in a funny way. A clumsy reporter Lipponen is searching crimes with crazy wife of the janitor Aaltonen.

This is a quite useless movie. There's singing, funny moments with kids and a lot of over-acting but with all that it looks like a mess. And Elna Hellman... It's Hell to watch her in this one.

TRIVIA: This was the very last movie which T.J. Särkkä made with his child star Veli-Matti.
