Näkimadalad (1989)
Synopsis
The viewer will be transported to the distant thirteenth century. At that time, the Swedes lived on the Estonian islands and, thanks to the royal charter, were not serfs. However, after the Twenty Years' War ended, the question of the living Swedes rose again, or rather their freedom. People were afraid to fall into serfdom. But by the will of fate, the letters written by the king fell into the hands of a Swede named Klemet. From that moment on, he had a goal - to get to the Russian Tsar, whom he would beg to confirm their privileges. Klemet and his friends set out on a dangerous, incredibly difficult and completely unpredictable journey...
