Letters From Iceland

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?

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.
