Better Tomorrow

2013 | Students film, Documentary | Director: Liis Nimik

The Dress

Original title: Kleit

2007 | Animation, Puppet | Director: Girlin Bassovskaja

A woman tries to remember the highlights of her life, or maybe dreams about them.

A woman tries to remember the highlights of her life, or maybe dreams about them. Who is that woman, whose dress knows a beautiful-exiting life with kitchen utensils?

From time to time different insects appear as to laugh over the woman's innocent dreams, just as guzzling and unreliable dreams. They predict the end and death, nobody knows - through guillotine or kitchen knife.
