“Tree of Eternal Love” is a humor-spiced debut feature film by new generation filmmakers Meel Paliale and Urmet Piiling.
Kiik, a young car mechanic stuck between the gears of life, finds out that his girlfriend's heart has been won over by a new handsome guy. To free himself from the pain haunting his soul, Kiik asks his best friend to join him on an adventure to cut down the tree of eternal love. The journey to the mystical tree becomes thorny, melodic and even criminal.
