Estonian-mindedness is expressed through the selection of topic, visual language as well as the soundtrack. Among the themes there are the national identity of Estonians, fellowship, local nature and culture. The message is slightly circumspect yet emphasizing Estonian mentality and nationality throughout the film.

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.
