Friday night we went to see "Laitakaupungin valot" by mr. Aki Kaurismäki, which was quite an interesting experience. Before the viewing we were treated to a half-hour lecture about Finnish cinema (I learnt a lot - I recognised about 2 of the directors mentioned!), followed by deep analysis and debate about the film (which I was forced to contribute to, since people had somehow spotted I was Finnish??).
On Saturday it was time to get all those last-minute xmas presents then (which in my case would be all the Christmas presents pretty much)...
On Sunday we did quite a long walk along the coast to Villefranche-sur-mer, very nice indeed. We even spotted some people swimming in the sea (well, I suppose swimming in the sea in December in this part of the world is kind of like swimming in Finland in June... :-)
