Aleks: You have to come to the court, goddammit! You'll see, everything will be alright!
Eerik: Don't become sentimental, colonel! You have one option: keep your mouth shut and continue serving. I have none.
Aleks: Really none?
Eerik: There is one: away from Estonia.
Aleks: After the court you can go to even Korean Persia.
Eerik: Where?
Aleks: Koera persse!
[translates as: 'to dog's arse']
Eerik: [laughs] You, colonel, should have begun to write poems. You are already pretty good poet.
Aleks: I am a soldier.

Flawed but emotional

The main characters are quite likeable even though they are rather simple. Dialogue is really wacky but otherways acting is great. Good atmosphere and corgeos cinematography. The plot is good enough and the ending is really emotional. It made me feel something and that's enough for me.
