Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Andres Puustusmaa shot this in just 18 days on a single location, originally a working restaurant he convinced to close for filming.
This premiered during Estonia's 2011 election cycle and was initially criticized as 'too cynical'—then several real politicians were caught in nearly identical scandals.
