Heikki Paasonen and his wife Marita arrived on the red carpet of the movie Kontio & Parmas.
The film version of the Kontio & Parmas series created by the Kummelit sketch group premieres on Friday, November 4. The coronavirus pandemic slowed down the release of the film to theaters, but now finally the tape shot a few years ago can be seen by the public.
In its brevity, the film is about a terrorist group that intends to blow up the entire city of Valkeakoski if the group’s demands are not agreed to.
Before the official premiere, an invitation-only event was organized, where the film’s stars, creators and a few fans were invited to watch the film in advance.
The film was directed and written by Aleksi Mäkelä Heikki Vihinen and Heikki Silvennoinen.
On leave from family with children
A seemingly happy engaged couple Heikki Paasonen and Marita Alatalowere able to go on a movie trip to Tampere together in the midst of families with children.
Paasose has a role in the film. He plays a terrorist.
– It seems to remain the only role. I’m not planning a film career when The Voice of Finland provides enough employment, he laughs.
The couple’s little daughter has stayed at home with a nurse this time. The energetic wanderer is the first child of Paasonen and Alatalo and will surely keep his parents busy.
– Usually the wake-up call is at five o’clock. Now we have a hotel job ahead of us alone in Manse, says Paasonen.
At Iltalehti’s request, Alatalo presents her sparkling engagement ring, but she refuses to reveal the wedding date. However, he says that he is going to the Canary Islands for a week with the couple’s daughter on a triathlon trip.
– Heikki gets a week of his own time, he laughs.
