It's a story what post-USSR state inhabitants quickly recognize as "privatization" craze in the early 90s. Bleak muddy farms were indeed quickly sold to some foreign 'investors' in some cases. In the spotlight, Irene, has to manage a pig farm in difficult economic situation. All her life was dedicated to the farm. One day, a foreign visitor will try to take power over the farm and she feels both attracted, competitive and powerless through the wind of changes. And it has some twists and great humor! Also some hidden messages.

I think its an entertaining movie about the crazy 90s, it is a little bit controversial (it makes to see those post-USSR farmers as total fools and losers) but it is also full of hopes.

This entertaining drama will seem really funny for those who are also writing and procrastinates when there are no new ideas in mind. The concept - one house but different connected stories are nothing new, but it had its tensions and twists!

Altogether, failed intellectual, old puma, immigrants and grumpy chess player keeps the viewers clueless about the outcome.
