Pikku Iso, remainedas a guardian of land, to the site he was chained.
In the tiny village of Isopikkujärvi (pop. 1) lives a lonely Maahianen (a guardian of land in the Torne valley folklore) named Pikku Iso.
Pikku spends his days plying old videogames and sometimes he dreams of somone to share his lonely life with.
One night, he signs up for an online dating site. He is barely done with his profgile when he gets the first match.
Soon Pikku is on his way to his first date in the neighbouring municipality. Will Pikku find love?
