Synopsis

Six years after Finland opens up its job market to new EU Member States, a considerable number of Estonians have left their poorly paid jobs in Estonia in search of a better tomorrow in Finland. A bag that's always packed, a bed in an anonymous room, a kitchen that's used by countless number of people - these are lives on permanent standby. A story of a house near Helsinki, where ten Estonians live on the ground floor and their employer, Tomi, a Finn and a true Estophile, on the second. Tomi wonders why the Estonians don't do much with the free time on their hands or "soak up" the local culture, the Estonians, however, have a whole set of other concerns.
