Valli`s Bar

Original title: Valli baar

2008 | Documentary | Director: Manfred Vainokivi

All towns in the world have legendary bars and drinking places. Tiny Valli Bar in Tallinn links different times and people and film is a portrait of Estonian drinking scene. Shooting months turned out jolly, but also dramatic, one of the participants was kicked out of home, two died soon after the filming. Drinking was definitely part in all that. We are not against or for drinking, we just want to see and understand it - if this is possible all together.

The Art of Motion

Original title of the film: Kulgemise kunst

2002 | Documentary, Portrait | Director: Ove Musting

Dancer and choreographer Teet Kask's story of creating and the art of going with the flow.

The documentary observes one of Teet Kask´s dance perfomances - the story of its creation and internal development. The art of creating, usually individual and secret, suddenly becomes comprehensible. This, primarily thanks to the creator, Teet Kask, and his open and humorous dialoque with himself. As the film runs its course, an organic reasoning is found behind the incorporation of the creative work of the Young Choreographer and Old Boy (one translation of the Lao-zi name) into an audiovisual sketch-portrait.
