Summary "Kahvikulta: 1-näytöksinen savolaispila" by Aaro A. Nuutinen is a comedic play written in the early 20th century. Set in Savonia, Finland, the story unfolds in a rural courtroom, highlighting the absurdities of a theft case involving a sheep. The play captures the essence of local dialect and culture, depicting characters typical of a small Finnish village. The narrative revolves around the accusation made by Pekka Pakarinen against Mikko Mäkäräinen for stealing his sheep. As the trial progresses, various witnesses provide humorous testimonies, revealing a tapestry of miscommunication and misunderstanding. Ultimately, it is discovered that the sheep was given willingly by Pekka's wife, Riikka, to Mikko in exchange for coffee and sugar. This revelation leads to the dismissal of the case, leaving the villagers in laughter as they reflect on the triviality of the dispute and the chaos sparked by "kahvikulta," a term reflecting the cultural significance and value of coffee in their lives.
