The Cafe Of My Memories is a Finnish-French music film with a script, the lyrics and the direction by Valto Baltzar and the
music by Heikki Sarmanto. The story is set in Helsinki, Finland and partly in France. It’s a love story between a Frenchman
Philippe and a 19-year-old Finnish girl Emilie. The young French teacher falls in love with Emilie, the daughter of Emma,
who runs her own cafe in Helsinki. Emilie helps her mother at the cafe and in the evenings, she goes out with Philippe. Their
favorite movie is Jacques Demy’s film Umbrellas of Cherbourg. The movie is about the power of love during the time which
sees the surrounding world constantly turning colder and less human. As the society becomes more splintered not everybody can keep up. Philippe decides to pull through these hard times with the power of love. The beautiful songs carries the
story on.
