This provocative documentary chronicles the most elaborate theatre happening to ever take place in Estonia. Renowned theatre troupe N099 takes on a corrupt political system by declaring the creation of a new political party, Unified Estonia. The company’s actors - playing politicians - embark on a campaign full of clichéd, empty promises and staged moments. The media, political pundits and citizens are enthralled, asking ‘Is this all a giant hoax or an authentic grassroots movement?’
