A film that follows Estonian youth as they figure out life in their twenties, dealing with uncertainties and searching for purpose.

Sebastian, working as a store clerk, finds his ordinary workday shaken up when he meets Silo, a free-spirited wanderer. Together they smoke weed and dream of a one-way ticket to Brazil. “Rolling Papers” explores the lives of young adults, united by their uncertainty about the future and a longing for a purposeful existence.

On April 20th Elektriteater hosts a special screening of three films with director Meel Paliale: Paliale's "Rolling Papers" (2025), which won Best Film at the Neitsi Maali awards (awarded by the Estonian Film Journalist's Association), "Debt" (1966) and "The Old Thomas was Stolen" (1970), which are mentioned in "Rolling Papers". All films have an introduction by Meel Paliale. 

You can purchase a pass if you want to see all three films. Standard passes are 15 euros. For students (with a student card) the pass is 12 euros. To purchase a pass, please write to us at kratt@elektriteater.ee.
