Original title: Inimese mõõt

2010 | Documentary, Problem oriented | Director: Marianne Kõrver

Is the global environmental crisis concerning just our environment or is it also the crisis of our habits, expectations and values?

The relations between urbanizing people and natural environment become more and more problematic. Maybe the global environmental crisis is the crisis of the increasing process of urbanizing and the crisis of our habits, expectations and values? The documentary reflects the fear that our habitual world is going to end - the ever-pulsating streets of New York City; the ancient Hsasnkeyf in Turkey, with the history reaching back to the beginning of urban culture in old Mesopotamia; the fishermen villages in Tonle Sap Lake in the heart of Cambodia; and in an ultramodern urban district in Freiburg, South-Germany.

The Process

Original title in Estonian: Protsess

2010 | Students film, Short | Director: Vallo Toomla

Message: Assigned unique roles in life, individuals must search deep within the apparent absurdity of existence to achieve spiritual self-realisation.

A story about the search for love, freedom and the strive to get to know oneself, the subjective truth that combines the objective truth. Immanent and transcendental meet. Following oneself. Desire to get somewhere, out of the process, endless dividing that never ends, but always ends up somewhere. Pulls and drags to the new, but similar with the old. A story about quilt, lacking in oneself, what reflects the lacking in everything around us. All is siding, dividing, multiplying, appearing, disappearing. Watching, suspecting. Fear that comes from triviality.

As a five-year-old prodigy, he became a circus attraction. At the age of eight, the young virtuoso entertained Tsar Nicholas II and his Court.

Estonian Film Database (EFDB)

The database is maintained by NGO Estonian Film Database. It was opened on 12.12.2012 and is meant for providing information about the whole Estonian film heritage from 1912. We plan fully complete it by 2025 but already now full and partial entries for about 20 000 films, 27 000 filmmakers, and more than 200 production companies could be retrieved in Estonian and partly in English. Translation of film descriptions and keywords into English is ongoing but due to the scarcity of resources quite a slow process. Read more detailed overview.
