HARBOUR BROTHERS is inspired by reality and people who lived during this time and left an unforgettable legacy. This is the story of 1950s Finland, when boats from all over the world docked in the harbour city of Kotka. In addition to transporting goods, the sailors brought another import: jazz, swing and blues. Some music-loving, fearless and passionate young men from Kotka decide to open Fennia, a jazz bar. Soon Fennia becomes a legend of its own time, where the men, the Harbour Brothers, play their music and hold court like emperors. KEISARIKUNTA, the original name of the title, means just that - The Empire. During one summer, the Harbour Brothers conquer the souls of the sailors and the people of Kotka. This is a story about dreams, hopes and a time filled with passion - for music and love. At the same time, this is a story about a young man´s choice between the two big loves of his life: a woman and the music. The soundtrack includes many classics from the 50´s: I´m A Dreamer, Digadigadoo and Nature Boy, which are presented in their original language, English.
