How to Tell You, Brother

Martin returns to his native Estonian town after many years away. His brother Andres, whom he hasn't seen since childhood, meets him at the station with a strained smile. Between them lie years of silence, unspoken grievances, and a family secret known only to their dying father. Over three days, the brothers must not only care for their father but also relearn how to speak to one another. The 2025 family drama by director Marko Raat explores the fragility of male relationships, the weight of the unspoken, and the difficult process of reconciliation. Filmed with minimalist precision, every glance and pause speaks volumes more than dialogue. The story unfolds against an autumn landscape that becomes a metaphor for decay and the hope of a new beginning.
