Parrhesia. The Obligation to Speak the Truth.

Parrhesia laid the foundations for Ancient Greek Democracy. Parrhesiastes is a person who speaks freely and boldly. The one who has the moral obligation to tell the truth for the common good. The hero of the Documentary is an Estonian parrhesiastes Einar Laigna. A former high ranking officer of the army, who has retired to an abandoned medieval Monastery. Using the half ruined Monastery as a cockpit, he launches his stinging and ironical verbal attacks on the insanity and irrationality of a modern world. At the time, when society is closing up and political control becomes the norm of life, parrhesiastes is the kind of moral saint, who keeps the spirit of truth alive, the one who protects the inner freedom.

The film focuses on physiognomic details of Parrhesia.
