As a Finnish counterpart to Werner Herzog's "Grizzly Man," Hannu has a love and a connection to nature that surpasses most. It is the rare lynx in particular that has taken hold of Hannu's heart--so much so that he claims he can actually speak its language. When a dead lynx appears in his forest, he puts on an animal mask and crawls through the mulch and undergrowth. With strangely beautiful footage captured by hidden cameras, LYNX MAN paints a colorful and vivid twilight picture of the nature around us – and of man's impact upon it.
