Marion wants to marry her female friend Julia. Marion has grown up in a religious family where her mother became a liberal priest. Young women have lived openly in a relationship, but now Marion's thoughts have changed. He finds himself a new life in the fundamentalist Simeon church led by his grandfather grandfather. Marion's mother Henry, one of the first female priests of the Lutheran Church, cannot stand the idea of her daughter attending a congregation that opposes female priesthood and homosexual relationships.

Eija is the wife of a busy business owner, carrying the burden of taking care of a family. During her weak moments, Eija writes a letter that comes back to haunt her. Suddenly she has to reevaluate everything about her life.

This film was not anticipated. “My motive for making the documentary 'Me and Riikka Purra' was curiosity,” says the screenwriter-director, who first gained recognition as a musician and producer. “I realized that I didn’t know a single ‘Persu’ [Finns Party supporter], nor did I understand their way of thinking. I wanted to find out!”
