Disco and Atomic War

Original title: Disko ja tuumasõda

2009 | Documentary | Director: Jaak Kilmi

Playful documentary by Jaak Kilmi and Kiur Aarma about the development of their generation during the Soviet era where the totalitarian power confronted the heroes of pop culture and the Finnish Television was the window to the world of dreams.

The playful documentary tells the story about a strange war of information in Estonian SSR during the 1980s when the totalitarian power confronted the heroes of pop culture. And the heroes won. Western pop culture played extremely important part in developing the world view of the Soviet youth - today this may seem rather weird.

Original title: Emissarid

1974 | Documentary | Director: Semjon Školnikov

Documentary by Semyon Shkolnikov about the ideological diversion against the Soviet Union.

Propaganda film constructs an ideological character of an enemy even if the borderlines of the portrait are vague and scattered: the foreign tourists visiting Tallinn, nameless representatives of religion from Estonia and abroad. Photo and film frames introduce the degradation of the Western society. As the filmmakers provide their resume: while fighting against the Communist ideology USA intelligence has admitted that the church is an effective means of fight - it helps to filter in the enemy's territory and to guarantee a base for fifth column activities. The documentary shows Finnish tourists who bring with them religious literature, mostly Bibles ...
