We are the Soviet people, and we pay!
'Here We Are' is a timeless classic that combines fantastic physical comedy with witty dialogue. This was last feature multi talented director Sulev Nõmmik directed. And he was in his best form while doing it. Such a smart writing - so many quotable lines and subtle humor. And the film is timeless, because such human types still exists - very down to earth intelligent rural people, and higher class full of themselves big city folks. Although there are some subtle jokes about Soviet regime (The government is good at the moment, but they demand too much from our children - only study, study study.) most jokes are just about our own human nature.
Not to mention the opening scene of the film - aerial shot of the island with that wonderful song playing. It is probably the only moment in Estonian movie that give me genuine chills, the good chills.
