Plot
The film depicts the legendary adventures of the Estonian itinerant, thief, and robber Rummu Jüri, who became famous among people in Estonia in the 1880s. The story begins with the corporal punishment meted out to the manor's valet Jüri, which the proud and independent young man does not forgive the gentlemen for. The honor of his beloved Madli is also at stake at the manor, and in order to save her Jüri must risk imprisonment. However, as a skilled and daring man, he remains elusive. The story of the young lovers is intertwined with risky swindles at the expense of the gentry. Like an Estonian Robin Hood, Jüri takes revenge for the injustice done to the peasantry. The film features one of the most convincing fight scenes in Estonia's early film history.Cast
