Winning the jury of the fourth edition of the CANNESERIES festival for Best Series and Best Performance Prize for its lead actor, the series Mister 8 finally arrives in France at CANAL + SÉRIES. This strange Finnish comedy by Teemu Nikki and Jani Pösö was a complete surprise at the festival, which also fascinated with its content and form.
In eight episodes, Mr. 8 tells the story of how a businessman juggles between his seven lovers who are different from each other. His love life is regulated as a clockwork because he has a different wife for each day of the week. Each of them signed a contract with him to lead this unusual life.
The ideal balance in Maria’s life is shattered when she falls in love with Juho, the eighth plaintiff, who destroys and tries to eliminate her rivals by any means. The famous Mr. 8 will turn into a predator who decides to remain the only favorite in Maria’s heart.
With an unusual and eccentric story that breaks gender codes and norms, turning men into a tough, sensitive and sunny woman’s doll, Mister8 is a funny comedy performed by its charismatic lead actress Krista Kosonen and sublimated with glitter. And white.
His Mister 8, Pekka Strang, is not unique and offers a delicious performance that impresses. Like UFOs in the TV landscape, the Finnish TV series manages to find the perfect balance between the originality of the subject and the singularity of the staging. A success that you should not miss!
