Sandra Gets a Job

Physics’ doctor Sandra Mets (Mari Abel) suddenly loses her job. Finding a new job seems easy at first, but turns out to be a tragi-comic experience. Endless job interviews introduce the main character to many different situations and personas from grotesque entrepreneur to fearless start-up managers. Otherwise thoughtful Sandra finds herself in a world of hypocrisy and strange power. She needs to adapt to new situations and people, but still has to ask how to remain herself.

The lead character is played by Mari Abel (“Pretenders”). Other roles are played by Hendrik Toompere (“Igitee”), Laine Mägi (“A Lady in Paris”), Henrik Kalmet (“Chasing Unicorns”), Carmen Mikiver (TV series “Siberian Cop”), Alo Kõrve (“O2”), Tiina Tauraite (“The Temptation of St. Tony”), Mait Malmsten (“Class Reunion”) Kaie Mihkelson (TV series “Kelgukoerad”), Raimo Pass (“Mushrooming”), Hendrik Toompere Jr (“The Days That Confused”).
