Based on one of the most loved Estonian classic stories, “Fools of Fame” takes us back to the beginning of 20th century, when Estonia was part of the Tsarist Empire. National self-consciousness was starting to bloom and many Estonians had a burning desire to create something eternal for their Nation – whether it was a miracle of engineering or a piece of timeless literature. It’s is a tragicomic story about high aspirations in difficult times. It’s a story of how the realisation of beautiful ideals can be hindered by mundane things and adverse circumstances.
