Tonight, the documentary previously shown on the Friday program will be rerun A lonely funeral.
We will see in the touching short documentary Harri Juhanin a funeral where no relatives attended.
Only the priest and the cantor escorted the deceased on their last journey in the empty chapel.
– Surely there will never be a funeral in one of the provinces where the deceased is alone. Yes, there is always a villager there, suntio Heli Hyystinmäki reflects in the documentary.
In his opinion, loneliness is more about big cities.
– I think quite a lot of people who don’t have pallbearers for their own coffin… There might be marginalization or mental health problems, priest Maika Vuori ponders.
In his funeral speech, the priest says that Harri Juhani was born in the early 1950s in Helsinki, after which he lived in different parts of the city.
– And I know that you serve in your work, Vuori continues.
The country is so beautiful -song, the coffin of the deceased is taken to be cremated.
