Plot summary

Student’s Tatjana Kosminskaja, Guntars Gulbis and Elis Rebbas BA musical TV program about successful Estonian pop band Smilers.

Is it plainly some formulas and mathematical strategies or life experience and haunting memories poured into emotional song lyrics, that makes a good song people can universally relate to? And if so, is it enough to be a successful artist? Or in order to stick around longer than 15 minutes,does the person behind the persona have to mean something more to the audience than just a voice singing through the speakers. In this episode we meet Hendrik Sal-Saller and his band The Smilers ,that will be celebrating its 20th anniversary this year.
