Ants Eskola: Olla või mitte olla

Story of prince Hamlet touched deepest and most painful spots in the soul of my grandfather, actor Ants Eskola. To him Hamlet`s monologue "To be or not to be" did not simply express the will to die or the concept of suicide, rather than the fact that other people are those who force you to ask yourself - are you capable to fulfill your dreams in life. His best years passed in Gulag camps. When he returned to Estonia, freedom had been replaced with foreign dictatorship. Life as a public enemy began, a fight for survival in a totalitarian system. Film about the life of a well-known Estonian actor and his work. Estonian theatre and statehood history as background. Birth and ruination of different ages.
