Hukule määratud

2018 | Animation, Cartoon | Director: Francesco Rosso

Maybe it is not earthly this road i have to walk, but how can i know if I am subjected to gravitation.

There, where there are no tracks anymore and the fallen trees embrace the rubble, someone sits; in the Indian summer’s crispy grass, and says peace unto himself. Things felt can not be erased, but they fade into wisdom for the future. Maybe it is not earthly this road I have to walk, but how can I know if I am subjected to gravitation.

I Let Her Out

2018 | Students film | Director: Ruta Pakalne

Ruta Pakalne's documentary film about the drag performer.

I Let Her Out is a documentary film centered around the drag performer Joosep Jürgenson and his stage persona Ursula. It explores the relationship of these two characters who share the same body but live quite different lives. Who is Ursula? Is she an extravagant character, a fruit of someone’s vivid and scandalous imagination or is she an integral part of Joosep that allows him to speak his nonconformist mind.

Long Live the Scandals!

Original title: Elagu skandaalid ja kollased sandaalid

2018 | Documentary | Director: Manfred Vainokivi

Documentary about Estonian contemporary artist Leonhard Lapin.

Leonhard Lapin is the classic and the enfant terrible of Estonian contemporary art, constantly followed by scandals, lewd legends and envious grumbling. Lapin confidently steps on the cornea of mediocrity, enjoying the situation to the fullest. Loved by his muses, the artist is not ashamed of his dalliances. He still has plenty at the grand old age of 70. The new Estonian film opens the doors to a disappearing Bohemianism, in which racy vocabulary reigns instead of political correctness.

More than Life

Original title: Enam kui elu

2018 | Documentary, Portrait | Director: Indrek Spungin, Taavi Arus

This is the story of the last genuine rock star and poet, of his work, and of the anatomy of a punk band.

Freddy Grenzmann is Estonia’s last rock star and the singer of the punk rock band Psychoterror. He’s also a poet. The rock star phenomenon is beyond ordinary norms. It’s larger than life. It can approvingly be said of Freddy that he isn’t normal – not on stage nor in life. Freddy’s oeuvre and life are equivalent – he gives everything his all. What makes Freddy interesting is not the delight of social or textual games but rather the magnitude of what he puts at stake, the possibility of completely losing himself, and the depth of foreseeable human or metaphysical distress.

Mountains That Were Not There

Original title: Mäed, mida polnud

2018 | Documentary, Portrait | Director: Ivar Jurtšenko

A documentary film that takes the viewer to the great stages of the sport of cycling. Estonians Tanel Kangert and Rein Taaramäe are the same age and both from the small village of Vändra. They are under the microscope as they both cycle in the top-level Astana Pro Team.

Talent, diligence and willpower can take you to the world stage, even if you grow up in Vändra, on the periphery of Europe, and dream of becoming a professional cyclist. A pro who conquers famous mountaintops in the Alps, the Pyrenees and the Dolomites, and whose name is heard from week to week on the Eurosport channel when the Tour de France, the Giro d´Italia or the Vuelta are underway. One exceptional success story is understandable, but when there are two of them, and both at the same time… Tanel Kangert and Rein Taaramäe grew up to become world-class champions ...
