„Kertu“ is a drama taking place in the small society of a village, which talks about 30-year-old Kertu, who has lived under her father’s power for her whole life and is thought by locals to be a little simple-minded because of her gentle nature. The young woman makes her first timid attempt to change something in her life – she sends a postcard to Villu, a handsome but degenerate village drunk. An unexpected love story ensues to the natural disapproval of their families and villagers.
