Summer with old friends. Experiencing the end of childhood together. Days and nights of fishing at a beautiful lakeside, driving around town, hanging around the gas station... Not because they want to - but because there is absolutely nothing else to do. 
THE IDLE ONES is a touching and revealing, but nonetheless, funny documentary about three young men, Lötkö, Hapa and Bodi, living in an empty area in Northern Finland.
