Last Man Standing (2005)

Original title: Piisa torn

Documentary Duration 52:07

Lighthouse keeper Avo Piisk has worked in the lighthouse of Vilsandi island for ten years. In summer 2004 Avo is laid off since the lighthouse will be maintained by a computer program. Even if Avo Piisk has got used to the idea that one day he had to leave his job, he does not want to go. He is certain that without him the Viljandi lighthouse will be destroyed, first due to the large number of tourists and then due to storms and rains.
