A Finnish family crisscrosses the countryside running a tiny fun fair and selling meat from the back of their food truck. Meanwhile, in bustling Helsinki, a pair of businesswomen launch a new plant-based protein called "pulled oats." Filmmaker Virpi Suutari connects two seemingly disparate business models—a butcher struggling to survive and a startup trying to scale—and shows how self-employment, work-life balance and customer preferences are changing across time. Stuck in the past, the rural family can barely rub two coins together as they try to move their product. Barrelling towards the future, the promising meat alternative sits poised to conquer the Chinese market and make millions for its inventors. Employing a jaunty soundtrack and epic vistas, Entrepreneur encourages the viewer to think big, to go out on a limb, to fearlessly try, because no matter what, there's always the potential for failure and success—in small business and beyond.
