The Milkman of Mäeküla (1965)
Original title: Mäeküla piimamees
Based on the novel "The Milkman of Mäeküla" by Eduard Vilde
When Baron von Kremer, the old owner of Mäeküla manor, starts liking Tõnu Prillup's young girlfriend Mari, Tõnu would not first hear of it. Then, the baron offers Tõnu a tempting deal - to become the manor's milkman on condition that Mari will come to see the baron when he invites her. Prillup has high hopes but unfortunately the milkman's job won't meet his expectations and he is more and more against sharing Mari with the baron. Tõnu expects Mari to loathe her double life, but she won't take the blame.
