My Estonia

Original title: Minu Eestimaa

2005 | Documentary, Overviews | Director: Riina Hein

Documentary about Estonia where its beautiful nature and locations are enriched by interesting facts, connections, beliefs and legends.

Estonia can be cursorily viewed in several ways - either as a tiny periphery state or a border country. But there is also another way - to go deeper into the country while truly perceiving it.

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.
