The Estonians and Latvians join hands in this jointly produced Baltic comedy about love and theft centering on light-fingered Margita. Everything and anything that hasn’t been nailed to the spot winds up in her possession - whether it’s a wallet belonging to a passer-by or a Jeep. But the police are on to her and the streets of Riga are becoming just a little too dangerous for Margita these days (played by rising Latvian star Rezija Kalninca). She decides to break camp and hitchhike her way up north coming to rest at a little place called Vineeri in Estonia, where she soon finds herself looking after an entire household, including three men and a small boy. When one of them turns out to be a police officer, seductive Margita solves the problem by becoming his lover. Before long the men begin to get suspicious: apparently there’s a thief in the house. And so before Margita has the opportunity to be a mother to the boy, a wife to the policeman, and a daughter to the two old codgers, she finds herself on the road again. But this time, she’s joined by an unexpected companion. |
