The Diary of Vaino Vahing

Original title: Vaino Vahingu päevaraamat

When love is the greatest torment, will art or play save you? A dramatic documentary about author Vaino Vahing.

Documentary about Estonian rock music as a birth-story of a fresh thought in the contradictional Soviet cultural space.

Documentary about Estonian rock music as a birth-story of a fresh thought in the contradictional Soviet cultural space. A world of contrasts – pioneers placing flower chaplets to Lenin’s monument and Scott McKenzie “If you’re going to San Francisco, be sure to wear the flowers in your head….” First Estonian beat-bands were born already in the early 60’s. Names like “Juuniorid”, “Rütmikud”, “Optimistid”, “Mikronid”, “Kristallid”, “Virmalised” (Juniors, Rythmics, Microns, Crystals, Polar Lights) and a lot of others, not so well known, performed almost every week on youth dance-nights.
