The feature film based on Eduard Bornhöhe's story takes the viewer to the early days of the 20th century, when Estonia was still part of the tsarist Russia. Pride in one's nation was emerging and the desire to give something eternal to one's people at any cost - be it a miracle machine flying in the air or valuable literature written in the language of the country. Unfortunately, it was not that easy and sometimes there was lack of talent.

Alors qu’ils reviennent d’une grande foire quia ccueille les artistes et les marchands de toute la région, Melchior et son épouse Keterlyn ramassent une mystérieuse carte à jouer devant leur porte. Quelques jours plus tard, la même carte est découverte dans les poches d’un forain retrouvé pendu. Ce meurtre déguisé en suicide est cependant eclipsé par l’arrivée en ville de la redoutable inquisition chargée d’enquêter sur les méthodes du désormais célèbre apothicaire. Confronté à de nouveaux meurtres et accusé d’hérésie, Melchior devra faire usage de tous ses talents pour venir à bout d’ennemis qui les menacent maintenant lui et ses proches.

Arno Tali's son Arnold returns to his homeland Paunvere, which ignites a passionate love triangle between Paunvere's young Toots', Kiir's and Teele's. Despite the restrictions of the occupation period, people party, have fun and fight, youthful bravado does not allow itself to be tamed even in dangerous times.

The drama series, directed by Ilmar Raag, tells the story of young conscripts who suddenly find themselves in a completely new environment. Alongside the hardships of a new life, military service gives young people a chance to see the world from a fresh perspective and make bold decisions. Interestingly, it is this kind of 'closed' system that often offers people the freedom to take on new challenges.
