Andrus Valvur was born in New York and raised in Japan, California and Switzerland, a child of the post-war Estonian exile community. He earned serious academic degrees in International Relations yet worked his entire adult life as a stand-up comic, comedy writer (for Robin Williams and Dan Ackroyd, among others), journalist and TV host. Well into middle age he decides to explore his ethnic roots by staging a one-man live comedy show in Estonia, for Estonians, in Estonian. This cheerful film documents the perilous project, paying close attention to Andy’s many cross-cultural challenges.
