Self-taught philosopher Konsta Pylkkänen guides a group of researchers through Finland’s Kainuu wilderness in the hopes of having a “sinistä ajatusta”, idea out of the blue. While firing upon a hybrid of the hazel grouse and the western capercaillie, kinds of birds, he indeed makes a scientific discovery.
