Original title: Buss

2004 | Observation, Documentary | Director: Laila Pakalniņa

The Tallinn - Kaliningrad bus crosses three borders during one night. Estonian - Latvian, Latvian - Lithuanian and Lithuanian - Russian. It rides on the territories of four countries. The reason for the film about this bus is, at the very lest, because things are not as they were some times ago (during the USSR) and will not be like that in the not so distant future (when the three Baltic States will be in the EU).

The bus line from Tallinn, the capital of Estonia, to the Russian city of Kaliningrad was opened decades ago, at the time when Estonia, Latvia, Lithuania and also Russia were part of the Soviet Union — a society where there were no intra-country borders.

It is the story of one bus — its journey from Tallinn to Kaliningrad. The bus travels through four countries and the passengers exchange four different currencies ...
