Her journey interconnects with the stories of Karaoke Paradise. Kari is a lonely mechanic in a provincial town who organizes karaoke gatherings in his garage. Elina can hardly walk because of Parkinson’s, but punk songs make her dance. Laura sings because talking is too painful. For some, karaoke are therapy. For others, a mean to combat their shyness.
