What happens

Uuno Turhapuron aviokriisi (The Marital Crisis of Uuno Turhapuro, also The Marital Crisis of Numbskull Emptybrook) is a Finnish 1981 comedy film written by Spede Pasanen and directed by Ere Kokkonen. It is the sixth film in the Uuno Turhapuro series, and it is the first Uuno Turhapuro film in color, while the previous ones were still black and white due to budgetary reasons. Uuno Turhapuron aviokriisi was the biggest audience success of 1981 and the most successful Uuno Turhapuro film after Lottovoittaja UKK Turhapuro despite the fact that, like the previous parts, the critics had a very negative attitude towards the film. The film premiered on Mainostelevisio on April 8, 1984, when it was seen by more than 1.5 million viewers. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
