What's Your Name?

Original title: Mis su nimi on?

2009 | Feature film, Short | Director: Maria Avdjuško

Anecdotal story about a known intellectual who unexpectedly is given a new identity and during one night he will find out that he might actually need it in the future.

The protagonists of the anecdotal short film are Linnar Priimägi and Taavi Eelmaa; the deuteragonists of the film are Tuglas and Savisaar. Priimägi and Eelmaa perform the most provocative homoerotic scene in Estonian film history – a night full of wild gay sex. Supposedly, the film is based on true events. Not recommended for those under age and the faint-hearted!
