Synopsis

A journalist has gotten wind of corruption rumours involving the politician Aadu Kägu. On the day the journalist tries to contact him, Aadu decides to go mushrooming with his wife. On their way they pick up a restless rocker named Zäk, who has been hanging around in the backwoods after his summer tour. The group avoids the more crowded forests for mushroom picking and takes blindly off towards some place wild and deserted. It is not completely deserted, however, but by then they are hopelessly lost...
