"Pelkkää lihaa" (direct translation "Sheer meat") is a show about a slaggy, simple, 20-something, Mika (Jarkko Lahti) who dreams of heavy stardom, but hasn't even managed moving from his childhood home to live on his own. Most of his time Mika spends with the co-members, Sami and Ropi, of their very own heavy metal band, Iron Dragön, either practicing in his family's basement or hanging out at the local bar.
Mika's parents, Keke and Marjatta, secretly wish that their adult son would already get a grip on his life and do something useful instead of freeloading on his parents' expense. Mika, however, is waiting for Iron Dragön's great breakthrough, which is reeeaaaaally close. Honestly! It is!
