Cinéma vérité documentary about two lottery winners and their lives before and after the big victory.

Fortunately they have not had to experience envy; instead, they have been congratulated for their luck.

2008 | Feature film, Full length feature | Director: Liina Paakspuu

The first full-length feature film directed by Liina Paakspuu gives a cartoon-like description of the way the dreams and reality of common people clash. In order to escape this, one has to have confidence in themselves and some luck.

Liina comes to the city while hoping to find opportunities to start her own life there. To work as a cashier in the supermarket is definitely not Liina's dream job but she won't fit for those her relative Ave can offer her. Liina meets more and less strange people at her work and in the dormitory - and all of them have got wishes.

Summer

Original title: Suvi

1976 | Feature film, Full length feature | Director: Arvo Kruusement

The second film of the trilogy (based on the novels "Spring", "Summer" and "Autumn" by Oskar Luts) directed by Arvo Kruusement follows the life of the characters known from "Spring" with a humorous undertone.

Joosep Toots is always playing a practical joke on someone and Jorh Adniel Kiir keeps failing in everything he does. Both of them try to win Teele's heart; however, the moody young woman seems to be extremely determined. The beloved actors and actresses from "Kevade", the first part of the film trilogy, appear again in the roles while having grown up in the meantime. "Summer" depicts the life of the early 20th century in a humorous way while the lyrical undertone is provided by beautiful Estonian landscapes and the soundtrack familiar from "Spring".
