Plot
Enn Mänd, a young and high-principled construction engineering student from the island of Vilsandi, and Hilma Aamisep, the daughter of a wealthy family in the capital, dream of happiness together. The building contractor Pilliroog is jealous about their love. Through his business connections, he pressures Hilma's upstanding parents to influence their daughter to befriend him. He resorts to intrigue and violence to achieve his goals. The depiction of the life of upstarts in the Estonian capital in the 1920s gives the silent film a socially critical character.[3]
