November is Estonian fantasy film based on Andrus Kivirähk’s beloved novel Rehepapp ehk November (Old Barny aka November). The film by the director Rainer Sarnet can be described as a fairy tale for adults, where black humour and romantic love come together. The story is set in a pagan Estonian village, where the greedy and dim-witted villagers are struggling with plague, old devil and kratts. The protagonist of the story is a young farm girl Liina (Rea Lest), hopelessly in love with a village boy Hans (Jörgen Liik). Hans, however, longs for an aristocrat’s marvelous daughter (Jette Loona Hermanis). In addition, Liina’s father (Arvo Kukumägi) wants the young woman to marry with dirty mouthed Endel (Sepa Tom).
