------- short synopsis:
Katja was born in 1992, an experiment generation for the new Republic of Estonia. She is floating, neither attached to Estonia, nor to Russia. Like Little Red Riding hood, she has freed herself from experiments and fears imposed on her. The film suggests several metaphors to describe the trauma of the displaced - from Little Red Riding Hood to the keyword of experiment.
