Synopsis

Cherry Tobacco is about a small-town girl, Laura, who is constantly bored. Her mother gets
on her nerves, boys her age are stupid and everything anyone wants to do seems childish.
One day Laura’s energetic friend Merit invites her on a hike to a bog led by a middle-aged
nature-lover called Joosep. The beginning of the trip is anything but promising: the relationship
between the reserved girl and the outgoing Joosep, who tries to impress the hiking party
with his hillbilly style and bizarre rituals, becomes tense. But much to her own surprise, Laura
discovers that as the hike continues she is enchanted by the rugged charms of Joosep. The
quest is coming to its irrefutable end and Laura has to decide whether a relationship with an
older man is a mere step along the winding road towards becoming a woman or whether it is
her very first love.
