Original title: Et meeldiks kõigile

2011 | Documentary, Problem oriented | Director: Kristina Norman

In an atmosphere ripe with nationalism, two young engineers are commissioned by the Estonian Ministry of Defense to erect the country’s most important monument – a statue commemorating the War of Independence.

Documentary about Estonian rock music as a birth-story of a fresh thought in the contradictional Soviet cultural space.

Documentary about Estonian rock music as a birth-story of a fresh thought in the contradictional Soviet cultural space.

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.
