The Midday Ferry

Original title: Keskpäevane praam

1967 | Feature film, Full length feature | Director: Kaljo Kiisk

The drama directed by Kaljo Kiisk depicts the way people act and think in a crisis situation. The screenplay by Juhan Smuul includes both elements of a disaster film as well as a witty dialogue.

Very different people meet on a ferry from Virtsu to Kuivastu on a June day: a hairdresser with her educated husband; her handicapped brother with his sister's neglected child; four female students of linguistics and four young specialists; a group of islanders returning home; and two stowaways - a young couple in love. The steersman of the ferry is having a hangover and breaks the ferry regulation while letting two fuel vehicles on board. It turns out during the trip that there is a truck on board where something has caught the flame.

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.
