A documentary film about a tour of three Finnish rock bands around Saimaa lake system in a steam boat in 1981. The bands (Juice Leskinen Slam, Eppu Normaali and Hassisen Kone) are shown playing songs in their gigs and, in between, the members give intimate interviews or just act plain silly and have a good time.
The Saimaa Gesture was directed by Mika Kaurismäki and Aki Kaurismäki.
The Saimaa Gesture runs for 2h 8min, and was released in 1981.
