Five fresh short films on the theme "With the best intentions" from even fresher Estonian directors.

Karl and Carla is set in an ironic dystopia from the near future, where adult relationships and interactions are regulated and controlled by the government’s ‘Happiness Institute’.

The film consists of three chapters. The Manslayer takes place more than a hundred years ago. The leading character Maara is a young bride who is about to start her life in her new family. The Virgin, set in the spring of 1949, tells the story of a young woman called Elina, who has been deported from Ingria into Estonia during the previous war. The Shadow moves in the present, on the border of real life and fantasy. The main character, Luna Lee, has decided to flee from home. Is there anything besides emptiness somewhere? The film is led by the singularity of the leading character - Maara, Elina and Luna Lee are all played by the same actress.

The "Swingers" is a shameless (and sometimes shy) relationship comedy with the main focus on SEX.

Какой была борьба бунтаря, любимца женщин и «самого аморального сотрудника» против жесточайшей цензуры, слежки и ханжества, и кто в ней победил?
