On Friday, February 27th, new episodes of the series 'A Brief Lesson in Estonian Culture' will debut on ETV, led by hosts Märt and Priit Pius. The series has journeyed through the dark ages of servitude and industrial revolution and is now poised to delve into the 20th century, a transformative time for Estonian culture. This new season picks up where the previous one left off in the late 19th century and covers the rapid advancements in Estonian cultural life as farmers transitioned into artists, scientists, and writers.

Hosts Priit and Märt Pius will be going behind the scenes of the national theater, uncovering literary scandals, and tracking artists both within Estonia and abroad. Their explorations will even lead them to Paris, investigating whether wealth and happiness awaited Estonians in the French capital. The second season will traverse the periods of the First Republic, Soviet era, and the newly regained independence of Estonia, highlighting various cultural phenomena, including 'mumble rap' and urban development.

The aim of the program is to enrich the viewers' understanding of Estonian culture through direct engagement with its history and its key figures. With the Pius brothers as enthusiastic guides, audiences can expect a vibrant and entertaining examination of how Estonia's cultural landscape has evolved, celebrating its artistic achievements and societal changes over the centuries.
