Autumn Cinema: Cinnamon in the Armpit, Tatu and Patu! (S) - Annantalo's Autumn Break — Annantalo, Helsinki
Description was written before the event

During the autumn break, Annantalo's autumn cinema shows Finnish films based on children's books. The autumn cinema is part of the Children's Book Festival, held at Annantalo from 7.10.2026 to 27.2.2027, celebrating children's picture books and reading through exhibitions, author visits, workshops, and events.

Entry to the films is free and no advance registration is required. Seating is limited and the audience is admitted in order of arrival - it's worth coming early. Groups are admitted as space allows.

In the film Cinnamon in the Armpit, Tatu and Patu!, the brothers travel by train from Outola to festive Helsinki to meet their 9-year-old friend Veera. However, Veera is delayed from the railway station due to Christmas crowds, so Tatu and Patu venture into the big city on their own. They find a "talented" artist at the art museum, a Christmas Santa and tree get mixed up at the department store, and cinnamon can be tossed into porridge instead of the armpit. Eventually, clever Veera takes charge and the friends find each other - and the surprise Veera has arranged.
