Risto Räppääjä ja viileä VenlaRicky Rapper und die coole Wendy / Ricky Rapper and Cool Wendy

Films for young viewers, Finland 2012, 73 Min., 6 years and older

“Youth isn't all fun and games!” - this, at least, Ricky and his aunt Fanny can agree on: At his aunt's summer camp on Sunny Island, Ricky is mostly left to his own devices as his best friend Nelly befriends the cool Wendy and would rather practise dance routines with her than catch worms or get into waterfights with Ricky. Aunt Fanny, on the other hand, has recognized a childhood friend in Wendy's father, for whose sake she is willing to twist the dancefloor like in the olden days - much to the dismay of her weakened tendons and ligaments! The third adventure of Ricky, the young Finnish rapper, gives a humorous and colourful account of how he, Nelly and Wendy are reconciled and how Aunt Fanny returns to a conduct of life as befits her age. All of which is, of course, interspersed with great musical interludes ranging from twist to funny metal. “Ricky Rapper and Cool Wendy” is cool fun and games.
