The narrative revolves around domestic life in a Finnish rural setting, likely exploring themes of gender roles, marital dynamics, and the daily struggles of farm life. The play presents a humorous and poignant portrayal of the interactions between husbands and wives, emphasizing the challenges and misunderstandings that arise from traditional expectations. The story primarily involves Kalle Rajala and his wife Reeta, as they navigate the complexities of their roles as husband and wife. As Kalle boasts of his authority as the man of the house, Reeta firmly challenges these notions, insisting on her own value and capabilities. The couple's humorous disputes lead to a role-reversal experiment where the men must take on the responsibilities of emännät (female hosts), while the women assume the roles of isännät (male hosts). Throughout the play, various characters contribute to the comedic and insightful exploration of domestic life, ultimately revealing the significance of mutual respect and understanding in relationships. The playful banter and relatable situations underscore the shared burdens of both partners, cultivating a deeper appreciation for each other’s contributions.
