"Estonian Prison"

For those movie lovers, specially Estonian movie lovers, on Thursday- 29th of may in the Estonian History Museum they will be presenting the film "Estonian Prison ". Because i have not seen this film I can only rely on the summary made by Arvo Pesti This film is made on the year 2003 by Indrek Kangur. It is not only about the prisons in Estonia, in some sense it is also about the near past of Estonia. Mainly it is concentrating on the Patarei prison, but they are not trying to shock the viewers with the horrifying acts from the past, but more about funny stories and happenings. The author is using many interviews with former political prisoners. The film is hosted by the popular Estonian actor Lembit Ulfsak.
