SYNOPSIS
Pirko hungers for love but no one pays him any attention.It doesn’t matter how hard he tries. After another social disaster at the local bar, Pirko decides to go north to seek for his roots. On the way he discovers that he can get love by imitating others. The Karaoke King is about our need for love. Hopefully for the ones we are, but if that’s not possible – for what we’re doing.
