The Ploughman's Fatigue

Title in Estonian: Künnimehe väsimus

1982 | Problem oriented, Documentary | Director: Enn Säde, Jüri Müür

This documentary is a critical analysis of the severe negative consequences of the centrally planned agricultural policy. A policy which imposes a new technology without taking into account the specific needs and conditions of the farming-land in Estonia.

Expressively bold and critical publicistic documentary about the failure of the Socialist production system in the Soviet agriculture. Agricultural machines for the non-black soil zone are non-functional, with low quality and there are not eough spare parts. Agricultural workers and officials share their thoughts in the documentary. The poor technical equipment makes the work process hard and is bad for the ploughman's health. The acutely critical documentary caused scandalous feedback in the entire Soviet Union.

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.
