Finnish middle-aged priest Late Mäntylä has realized that having a beard allows them to more authentically reflect their inner self through their outward appearance. Makeup artist Kata Launonen has offered to show Late how to create one. An afternoon spent in the beauty salon represents the culmination of Mäntylä’s life-long journey of becoming themselves.
