In December, the winning film " Coupe No. 6" , directed by Juha Kuosmanen and screenwriters Estonians Livia Ulman and Andris Feldmanis, will hit Estonian cinemas. The film was produced in cooperation between Finland, Germany, Russia and Estonia and is funded by the Creative Europe MEDIA programme. The support of the film development period by the MEDIA programme was allocated to the Estonian production company Amrion OÜ, produced by Riina Sildos.

The action of "Coupe No. 6" ("Compartment No. 6") takes place in the 1990s, when Laura, a Finnish archaeology student, flees for her stuck-up life by train from Moscow to Murmansk. On the train, he is forced to share a coupe with the vulgar Russian miner Vadim. Unexpectedly for the girl, the young man begins to like her over time, because under the man's harsh shell there is also just one wounded soul. In the end, neither knows how to do anything with the intimacy they find, and they leave without saying goodbye.
The script of the film is inspired by the novel of the same name by the Finnish writer Rosa Liksom.

The film is produced by Jussi Rantamäki (Aamu Film Company, Finland), co-produced by Riina Sildos (Amrion OÜ, Estonia), Natalia Drozd (CTB Film Company, Russia) and Jamila Wenske (Achtung Panda! Media GmbH, Germany). The film stars Seidi Haarla (Finland) and Yuriy Borisov (Russia).

In addition to the screenwriters and co-producer, the team also includes Estonian costume designer Jaanus Vahtra, grimm artist Liina Pihel, director's 1st assistant Ralf Siig, director's 2nd assistant Maria Kljukina and Estonian executive producer Anneli Savitski.
