6 Hours

Original title: 6 tundi

2005 | Documentary, Overviews | Director: Rein Kotov

During six hours thousands of tourists from the American cruise ship are being introduced to the city of Tallinn - they are provided with a short city tour enriched by subjective commentaries of local guides and some souvenirs.

Huge cruise ships come to Tallinn in summer, each one carrying thousands of tourists, mostly from the United States. They stay in Tallinn just for 6 hours. Endless lines of bus-drivers, tour-guides and tour-managers await them in the harbour. The cruisers rush through the main sightseeing locations, eat out in town and board on the ship again. Tallinn was just another pit-stop on their long route. The pier is filled with waving customer servants exhausted from the day’s tense work. “6 Hours” tells a humorous story about one summer day in one of the Eastern European town called Tallinn.

Emissaries

Original title: Emissarid

1974 | Documentary | Director: Semjon Školnikov

Documentary by Semyon Shkolnikov about the ideological diversion against the Soviet Union.

Propaganda film constructs an ideological character of an enemy even if the borderlines of the portrait are vague and scattered: the foreign tourists visiting Tallinn, nameless representatives of religion from Estonia and abroad. Photo and film frames introduce the degradation of the Western society. As the filmmakers provide their resume: while fighting against the Communist ideology USA intelligence has admitted that the church is an effective means of fight - it helps to filter in the enemy's territory and to guarantee a base for fifth column activities. The documentary shows Finnish tourists who bring with them religious literature, mostly Bibles ...
