Meet the three businessmen: Nokia’s former CEO, Jorma Ollila, engineering company Kone Oy’s owner, Antti Herlin, and the charming narrator, Publishing Company Otava’s former CEO, Heikki A. Reenpää. His narration leads the viewer through hunting expeditions, creates the mood and introduces the people.

This was one of the most heartwarming movies I have ever watched. To make a documentary about integration engaging is not an easy task, especially if you aim to make it a comedy. Through an entertaining plot, "Trevligt folk" manages to capture both the life stories of the Somalian immigrants and the local characters in Borlänge in a sweet and magic way. Yes, you will get a better understanding for immigrants and yes you will most likely cry at some point but when the movie is over you will have a warm fuzzy feeling in your heart.
