A film about an embassy of bygone times - a clothes menders in Nõmme which remains in business despite an onslaught of fast fashion. It offers an atmospheric gallery of a valuable way of life. Mrs Külli, Mrs Ulve, Mr Arnold, and their clients all play an important role in this cycle of life.
Recycling, upcycling, sustainable fashion – these are the magic words of our modern times which slow down mass consumption and value repurposing. At the same time, repairing clothes has been commonplace in this meager land for hundreds of years.
