Tarkoituksettomat

Tarkoituksettomat, Swedish for "meaningless" or "without purpose", is a Finnish Finnish-language film released in 2000. The film was directed by Hanne Lindholm and produced by Finnish production company 1999 Productions.

The movie follows a group of people living in a remote and isolated area of Finland, where they seem to be copying each other's actions and behaviors in a seemingly endless loop. The story is fragmented and surreal, with little connection between the various events and plot lines.

Tarkoituksettomat stars a cast of largely unknown Finnish actors, including Kari-Pekka Toivonen and Pia Viitala. The film's script was written by Thomas Abrahamsson, who also made his directorial debut with this film.

The film contains some symbolic and metaphorical elements, with many scenes open to multiple interpretations. Some viewers have seen parallels between the themes of repetition and emptiness in the film and postmodernist theories of consumer culture.

Reception of the film was mixed, with some critics praising its originality and ambition while others found it confusing and lacking in coherence. The film's runtime is approximately 90 minutes, and it was initially released only in a limited capacity in Finland.

Availability of the film outside of Finland is relatively rare and largely depends on independent distributors and DVD releases.
