What's Your Name?

Original title: Mis su nimi on?

2009 | Feature film, Short | Director: Maria Avdjuško

Anecdotal story about a known intellectual who unexpectedly is given a new identity and during one night he will find out that he might actually need it in the future.

The protagonists of the anecdotal short film are Linnar Priimägi and Taavi Eelmaa; the deuteragonists of the film are Tuglas and Savisaar. Priimägi and Eelmaa perform the most provocative homoerotic scene in Estonian film history – a night full of wild gay sex. Supposedly, the film is based on true events. Not recommended for those under age and the faint-hearted!

Amateurs

Original title in Estonian: Amatöörid

2008 | Short, Students film | Director: Marianne Kõrver

A black and gloomy comedically stylized film about a young ice cream seller, Roob, who almost by chance and thanks to his "multibusinessman" boss happens to land the leading role in an underground porno film. Though the youngsters in the lead roles of the porno film realize that they have crossed the line that most of their fellow citizens might denounce as indecent, their helpless actions are somewhat pardoned by their curiosity and inexperience. The same cannot be said for the film crew, who are pragmatic and down-trodden and whom there is no difference whether they are selling potatoes ...

The Wish Tree

Original title: Soovide puu

2008 | Feature film, Full length feature | Director: Liina Paakspuu

The first full-length feature film directed by Liina Paakspuu gives a cartoon-like description of the way the dreams and reality of common people clash. In order to escape this, one has to have confidence in themselves and some luck.

Liina comes to the city while hoping to find opportunities to start her own life there. To work as a cashier in the supermarket is definitely not Liina's dream job but she won't fit for those her relative Ave can offer her. Liina meets more and less strange people at her work and in the dormitory - and all of them have got wishes. Saara, Liina's neighbour, says that somewhere there is a tree of wishes - but how to recognize it among all other trees? And how can one realize what is the thing they wish the most? Liina ...
