Jaakko Keso: This is America - Season 1 (2024)

Jaakko arrives in New York and asks people what they think about the future of the country.

Jaakko meets his friend Brandon and they discuss about the ordinary suburban life.

Jaakko and Brandon travel to Detroit where the country's divide can be seen clearly. What happened to the American dream?

Jaakko discusses with various fervent Trump supporters about their beliefs.

Jaakko wonders why the media in America is so divided.

Jaakko meets American-Finnish people and gets to know their culture.

Only one question remains: Will there be a civil war in America?

There were so many interviews with Finnish descendants in the fifth episode that a large portion of them had to be cut. However, the subject is interesting, so here are some leftover scenes from northern Michigan, in the Hancock-Houghton area.
