About This Movie

Rodeo dives into the tumultuous early 90s in Estonia, a time when the nation was grappling with its newfound independence from Soviet rule. The documentary has this raw, almost gritty feel, reflecting the uncertainty of the period. Mart Laar, a young and somewhat inexperienced prime minister, is at the center of it all, and you can sense the weight on his shoulders. The pacing is deliberate, allowing viewers to absorb the gravity of the challenges faced, from economic struggles to national identity. It's not just about politics; it’s about a people finding their footing in a chaotic world. The visuals have a stark realism, which, combined with the interviews, creates an intimate portrait of resilience amidst upheaval.
