Cosmonaut

Original title: Kosmonaut

2019 | Animation, Cartoon | Director: Kaspar Jancis

A cosmonaut will always be a cosmonaut. To the very end.

An old Cosmonaut lives the same kind of life now in his flat in a concrete panel apartment building as he did in his youth in a space station. As before, he still carries out heroic missions and misses his close relatives, who he left behind on his home planet. His close relatives see the situation altogether differently. Is this old man capable of coming to grips with the norms that apply in society? A cosmonaut will always be a cosmonaut. To the very end.

In the Air

Original title: Õhus

2009 | Animation, Cartoon | Director: Martinus Daane Klemet

The telecommunication between the wolf and humans leads to a situation where the law of gravity changes to the unknown.

A television set attached to a small parachute falls through a glass ceiling and changes the way people live and let themselves be influenced. From the small magical screen, practically everything can be transferred until a wolf starts taking things into his own paws and changes the laws of gravity into something completely different. The Dadaistic style of mutual association creates a dream-like atmosphere of absurd humor.

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.
