Imagine the closest person to you joining forces with your greatest enemy. Maris finds out that her mother supports the far-right party in Estonia. This is very puzzling to her because she knows what abuse her mother has experienced, so how can she go against basic women’s rights? Soon Maris discovers that the same far-right party is connected to an international network of ultra-conservative organizations that helped engineer recent abortion bans in Poland and the United States. She embarks on a conservative “treasure hunt” across Europe, where experts, journalists, and members of the network itself help Maris understand what awaits her—and all women in Estonia—if the Party comes to power, painting a frightening picture of the current state of democracy itself.
