2005 | Documentary, Nature | Director: Rein Maran

Nature documentary by Rein Maran takes the viewer to the journey to the hidden world of Estonian eagles.

According to the European Nature Conservation Act, all Estonian eagles belong to the first category and their nesting sites are hidden from public. Tavalise inimese kohtumine kotkaga looduses on küllalt erakordne. Vaatajale avaneb ainukordne võimalus osa saada nende kuninglike lindude eluolust oma keskkonnas.

Estonian Film Database (EFDB)

The database is maintained by NGO Estonian Film Database. It was opened on 12.12.2012 and is meant for providing information about the whole Estonian film heritage from 1912. We plan fully complete it by 2025 but already now full and partial entries for about 20 000 films, 27 000 filmmakers, and more than 200 production companies could be retrieved in Estonian and partly in English. Translation of film descriptions and keywords into English is ongoing but due to the scarcity of resources quite a slow process. Read more detailed overview.
