Time

Original title: Aeg

1983 | Documentary, Overviews, Other categories, Experimental | Director: Mark Soosaar

Mark Soosaar contemplates the passage of time in our lives.

Mark Soosaar made images of life move in fast motion. Hurrying people have been filmed in fast motion, the frames are mingled with more peaceful and better observable images of nature also filmed in fast motion. This contradiction clearly expresses the abyss between the man and eternal nature. Nature becomes sublime, the human being becomes an ant. However, human creation becomes monumental. Time won't move and always stays the same. TIme passes by and we are hurrying through time.

Two trains

Title in Estonian: Kaks rongi

1973 | Documentary, Observation | Director: Jüri Müür

Overview about the Estonian economic relations in the economic territory of the Soviet Union.

If 150 train cars were put together in Tallinn depot for export then each car could be filled with the products of different production areas. And only 18 cars would include products made entirely of local raw material that is also locally consumed. All the rest are either through import or export related to other areas of Soviet Union or foreign countries. Two trains, one arriving and the other one leaving, are the conditional cross-section of Estonian economic relations.

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.
