Comedy Film
Estonia 2006
90 min
Direction: Elmo Nüganen
Language: Estonian with English subtitles

Film adaption of the homonymous theatre play by famous Estonian writer and singer Jaan Tätte, who was successful with „Bungee Jumping“ not only in Munich but became well-known in many European places with this piece.
 

The main character of the film, 40 year old dropout Toomas, is on trial because he believes that he has caused an airplane crash by his mental forces. "I think a lot of people do question themselves from time to tme which kind of life they live. And so did I. I often thought: keep on going a little longer this way and then I will start my real life, finish one more project and there we go! But once in a sudden a thought crossed my mind: what if this "and then" will not happen? If everything stays the way they are? At that point, it just clicked and I decided to try that immediately. This consummate zero-life. Someplace in the boonies."

A lovely comedy about a man who about-faces his life from on day to another to give his life a meaning. And finds this meaning within himself.
