Horsepower

Original title: Hobujõud

2022 | Documentary, Portrait | Director: Kullar Viimne

Risto Kappet is a professional e-athlete who spends his work days in the corner of his room, turning the steering wheel of car simulator.

Horsepower is a unit that has dropped behind in time. Also dropping in time are the machines using fossil fuels, and even human relations, at least in the way that the older generations see them. In the 1920s, vehicles with combustible engines began to take over the work done by the horses. Just a hundred years later, virtual reality is in the beginning of its triumph, as is physical solitude that comes with it. Risto Kappet is a professional e-athlete who spends his work days in the corner of his room, turning the steering wheel of car simulator. Turning the wheel ...

The Diary of Vaino Vahing

Original title: Vaino Vahingu päevaraamat

2021 | Documentary, Portrait | Director: Rainer Sarnet

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

In 1968–1984, Vaino Vahing kept a diary about real events and persons in his own subjective interpretation. It reflects cultural life of Tartu, love affairs, bohemian parties and intellectual quests of the time. Vahing was interested in borderline situations, crossing the borders. He drew no clear line between art and life. Vahing provoked people, tried to make them to lose their masks, their self control. He called this provoking the Spiel, or play. We are looking at a creator who has made disharmony his source of inspiration, who experiences “the greatest torment in love”. One who fears to lose himself ...

Roosenberg

2017 | Students film, Documentary | Director: Ingel Vaikla

Roosenberg is a place, a space, a building, a film. It is the story of an encounter, a story of a space at the beginning of the end.

Roosenberg is a place, a space, a building, a film. Roosenberg is a letter that tells of director's encounter with four elderly nuns in a fascinating monastery in Waasmunster, Belgium, before that building was vacated. For several months, director of the film followed four women who belong to the core community of Marian Sisters of St. Francis in Dom Hans van der Laan’s Monasterium and captured the everyday communal life of the sisters, their religious practice and final departure, in order to tell the story of modernist architecture. But this film is not the glorious celebration of that spiritual modernity. ...
