2 Hours to Happiness

Original title: 2 tundi õnneni

2022 | Documentary, Problem oriented | Director: Moonika Siimets

The film is a humorously wistful documentation of families living in the snowy fields of Lapland, apartments in Vantaa, on the staircases of shopping malls, at construction sites, hotel lobbies, and of grandchildren in the living rooms of Estonian grandmothers who are waiting for their children to come home.
