Director Rihhard Holmberg brought the first Oscar to Estonia with his hit film ten years ago and then disappeared abroad for years. Now he is back in his home country and appearing before the TV audience on a live talk show. One by one, the team members of Rihhard's Oscar film enter the studio, among them Rebeka, the film's lead actress.
The merciless hatred of the spotlights of the TV studio turns the talk show into a couch potato, and the story of a forbidden relationship that was hushed up on film sets ten years ago unfolds. The emergence of a former secret threatens to destroy everything that Rihhard has built up over the years.
This story explores the boundaries of love and power - where the sincerity of feelings collides with moral responsibility and makes you question whether a work of art should be judged by the artist's actions.
