Letters From Iceland

Original title: Kirjad Islandilt

2015 | Documentary, Portrait | Director: Peeter Brambat, Ruti Murusalu

In 2006, Annika Tõnuri, a former soloist of the Estonian National Opera, one of the most talented artists of her generation, moved to Iceland and her previous life in Estonia remained unknown. Who was she, how and why did she get there?

Off the south coast of Iceland lie the Westman Islands. In 2006, Annika Tõnuri, a former soloist of the Estonian National Opera, one of the most talented artists of her generation, moved there to work as a piano and singing teacher. For the Estonian audience, Tõnuri disappeared quietly like a shadow. For the Icelanders her previous life in Estonia remained unknown and fairly incomprehensible. Who was she, how and why did she get there?

The Sound of the Conductor

Original title: Dirigendi kõla

2007 | Documentary, Portrait, Music Documentary | Director: Peter Murdmaa, Helle Karis

Portrait documentary about Eri Klas, a legendary Estonian musician, through his creative and private life.

Eri Klas is inspired by the feeling of joy in his life - joy for his work, friends, colleagues, but most of all - for his family and homeland. See rõõm on kaasakiskuv ja ammendamatu, hoolimata sellest, et tema saatus pole olnud pilvitu. Ajaloo käik ja isiklikud kaotused, töötempo ja rahvusvaheline tuntus võivad inimese sisemises muusikas tekitada ebakõlasid. Eri Klasi kõla on jäänud puhtaks.

2006 | Documentary | Director: Hannes Lintrop, Renita Lintrop

History documentary by Hannes and Renita Lintrop about the 100th anniversary of Estonia Theatre and its building where the stories of Estonian nationhood and culture are intertwined.

Estonia Theatre combines Estonian national self-awareness and the history of its culture and nationhood. The building of the opera theatre is five years older than the first Republic of Estonia and it has hosted social, cultural and political events that give an overview of the story of development of Estonian state and nation throughout the century. Who knows - maybe the Republic of Estonia would not exist at all without the theatre.

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.
