The film is based on the play of the same name, which was translated from an unidentified German[5][6] or Swedish[6] original into Estonian by Mihkel Aitsam in 1908.
Peeter Simm, the chairman of the Estonian Cinema Association, characterized the film as "a mischievous story played in a grotesque tone, the most interesting part of which is perhaps the well-known places in Tallinn."
However, in order to receive money to live on from his rich uncle Paul Pinna, he has pretended that he has married and become a father.
The main character rushes outside to look for a suitable child, but at the same time the uncle befriends the young lady and learns the truth, which pleases him.
When the nephew arrives home with a stolen child, a happy couple awaits him and a generous uncle who forgives his deceptions.
