About

In 1987 Soviet Estonia, a teenage musician and his rival travel to a rock festival to impress a Finnish talent scout.

In the summer of 1987, Estonia is under Soviet rule and free expression is suppressed. Seventeen-year-old Mihkel (Timotheus Sammul), a rebellious musician, and his rival Hendrik (Erik Hermaküla) hear that a Finnish talent scout is visiting Estonia. To impress him, they plan a trip to a rock festival on the other side of the country.

Mihkel puts together a group for the journey, including Liisa (Carolyn Veensalu), the girl he secretly loves. Hendrik, whose band has just broken up, joins them to impress the foreign music producers at the festival; he brings along his new girlfriend Liisa and promises to respect Mihkel's leadership. The road trip tests friendship, love and dreams.
