My Stuff - one minute review


My Stuff (Documentary, not rated, 80 minutes). Petri Luukkainen has been buying lots of stuff to fill the emptiness left by his ex-girlfriend. In order to simplify his life, he puts all of his worldly possessions in a storage unit and only allows himself to retrieve one item a day for a full year. What could have been a boring daily vlog is instead a heartwarming examination of the significant objects in his life, and the importance our society places on material items. Petri is a charming protagonist and an excellent cinematographer, and his hilarious friends and family make this an enjoyable watch. Rating: Four Stars.

  2. This sounds intriguing and is reminiscent of that heart-wrenching final episode of the first season of "The Big C". I will seek this one out.
