Once upon a time there was a large Finnish company called Nokia that manufactures the world’s best and most innovative mobile phones. Nokia’s annual budget was larger than that of the Government of Finland and their phones spread everywhere and changed the whole culture of communication. But then something changed. 

The Story of a Mobile phone portrays the rise and fall of Nokia and the Finnish mobile phone industry from grassroots, from the aspect of the basic engineers, experienced by those, who made the miracle and faced the destruction.
