Karula National Park

Original title: Karula rahvuspark

2005 | Documentary, Nature, Overviews | Director: Anne-Mari Neider

Documentary about Karula National Park located by the southern border of Estonia.

Karula National Park is situated almost on the southern border of Estonia, far away from big towns. It is a small world – one landscape, one forest, and one parish. The Karula landscape came into being 12 thousand years ago. Estonia was then covered with thick ice, which started to melt and therefore created several unusual shapes of landscape such as the rounded hills, stretched eskers, and ice flow melting slopes. All these forms make Karula almost a textbook example of an ice age-shaped landscape.

Terra Maritima

Original title: Terra Maritima

2001 | Documentary, Nature | Director: Ago Ruus

The basis for the dynamic community of the European Union is the harmonization of certain rules. This applies to preservation of nature as well, and thus we hear more and more about the mysterious Natura 2000. Natura 2000 is a Europe-wide network of nature preserves, consisting of bird preserves and nature preserves. A large part of the existing preserves in Estonia fit surprisingly easily into Natura 2000. The film shows the types of habitats in western Estonia, because it was here that the pilot project for Natura 2000 was launched. This land is many thousands of years younger than the inland – even now the earth’s crust is rising here and the land being born from the ocean – Terra Maritima – has a thousand faces. In addition to the coastline, the film introduces various types of meadows - all very valuable habitats.

Man and Nature

Original title: Inimene ja loodus

1975 | Documentary | Director: Rein Maran

Contemplative documentary directed by Rein Maran about the relationship between man and nature.

The filmmaker has recorded special episodes about Estonian nature and people for whom nature is important, whether they be officials or amateurs – among others hunting biologist Harri Põldsam, students from the nature club at Tartu State University and Estonian Agricultural Academy (tutored by Jaan Eilart) and doctor of infectious diseases Mart Martson who has discovered his interest towards bird watching and research besides his daily professional work. All these conversations are surrounded by rare views from the world of nature: grouses' mating dance, a litter of helpless wolf cubs, Alpine butterwort, the blunt-flowered rush, Saaremaa yellow rattle etc.
