Miina

2003 | Documentary, Portrait | Director: Õnne Luha

Documentary depicts one day in a schoolgirl Miina's life: we see her in her home farm near the forest, at her school and at a party.

Miina is a fifteen-year-old girl living in Obinitsa village. She lives with her big family in a small forest farm and goes to a small school that will be probably soon closed. The kind of a school where students won't go for a secret smoke round the corner; where there are no drug dealers; and where the teachers are friendly yet strict. Miina doesn't want to stay to her home village - there is no work and she feels bored. The documentary follows her daily life.

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.
