This has to be the best film I've ever seen. It has such a powerful "between the lines" part, that you'll think about the film days after watching it. It was incredible, how Toomas explained to the people who asked him how to be happy, that they already were happy. They would just have to recognize their happiness. And I think that it's a big problem in our society too. When you have an unhappy period in life, then you can't think of anything else, but when everything is just fine, you don't see it and you're looking for something that couldn't possibly be found. I think it's okay to say that the film was healing. Appreciate small things, such as oak chestnuts, such as the magical rhythm of knocking on a wooden plate. Go and dance around as a mad man, go and follow your instinct. Just remember to feel how wonderful you're feeling.
