Mr. Särkelä has always done everything himself. And now he is the big boss. He thinks that there's no better than work after work and so on. Nobody likes him (except his family) and he likes only his family. And then one day his daughter wants to marry a guy. No way! Daughter belongs to me!

Old, but funny film. Aku Korhonen makes good role as a humble old man who just waits his money...
