Ismo – The funniest outsider in the world is, according to the creators, a film version of the saying “through difficulties to victory”.

A more detailed description tells about the documentary directed by Ilkka Hynnien and Saku Pollar as follows:

“Growing up in Jyväskylä, Ismo Leikola is a shy boy with a lively imagination who has trouble fitting in. As a student in his twenties, he comes across a new form of expression in Finland, stand-up comedy, which suits him perfectly. Ismo quickly becomes Finland’s most successful stand-up performer, but that is not enough for him. Ismo decides to go and create a career in the United States, the home country of the world’s most famous comedians.”
