The Fencer
I
n 1952 a young fencing champion Endel arrives in a small town
Haapsalu to work as a physical training teacher. For an introvert
man it is hard to get contact with the children who have been
through a lot.
In spite of the opposition of the principal of the school, Endel
manages to get a permit to teach fencing for children. Slowly it
becomes a therapy for the children as well as the teacher himself –
a way to deal with everyday grim. The defeated principal is holding
a grudge and starts to investigate, why did the champion of the
Soviet Union really come to a small town.
The Fencer is partly based on true life events of an Estonian
sportsman and coach Endel Nelis (1925-1993).

Roukli
A
small farm community is on the brink of getting swallowed by raging war.
Lives of the frightened locals get shaken by the arrival of two men on the
run from the mysterious, apparently vengeful Peedu.
Following events delve into the fine ties of human relationships and the
meaning of individual existence lurking behind them. A seemingly pessimistic
premise of the film slowly turns into something much more complex – a work
that depicts the frailty of deep human connection and reaffirms it as a legitimate
possibility once we learn to let go.
Director Veiko Õunpuu’s
debut feature Autumn Ball premiered at Venice IFF in 2007
and won the Orizzonti Award. He received the European
Talent Award for The Temptation of St Tony, which later
premiered internationally in Sundance in 2011 and was nominated for the Best Production Design at the European Film
Awards. Õunpuu was chosen as one of the 100 most intriguing contemporary film directors in the book 10*10 in Film by
Phaidon Publishing. His previous title Free Range: Ballad on
Approving of the World premiered at Berlinale 2013 and has
been circulating festivals since and won numerous awards.

Ghost Mountaineer
G
host Mountaineer is a youth film with elements of horror. The film is
based on real life events which took place during the Soviet era. It tells
the story of an Soviet Estonian student hiking group which gets caught
up in a series of scary events unfolding in wintry Siberia. The unpopular group
leader Olle disappears on the last day in the mountains. His rival, liberal-minded
and adventurous Eero guides the descending hikers into a Buryate village on the
mountain to seek help. A weird and insane chain of events is unleashed which
seems to be orchestrated by the missing Olle. In a foreign land and among people
they do not know, the hikers are faced with a task which they at first do not want
to undertake and later are unable to tackle.

Angry Painter
A
hard-boiled erotic vengenace thriller on the fateful encounter of mystical
killers Painter and Driver with Estonian prostitute Elbe that sets in motion
a fateful encounter of events with Russian Korean drug mob across Seoul
and Tallinn.
Director Jeon Kyu-hwan
had a unique career path in becoming an influential film
director as he entered the industry as a manager for actors
such as Cho Jae-hyunm (The Isle, Bad Guy, dir. Kim Ki
Duk) and Sul Kyung-gu (Silmido, No Mercy). He made his
directorial debut without any formal educational background. Starting with Mozart Town, his debut feature from
2008, he made the Town Trilogy including from 2009 and
from 2010, by employing an independent film production
method. His Town Trilogy shed light on the shady and lonely
hidden sides of a modern day metropolitan city by employing
different approaches in all three films. His 2011 film shifted
its direction and had its setting at Varanasi, a sacred place
in India, to present a torrid love affair between a man and
a woman. From Seoul to Varanasi was officially invited to
the Panorama section of the 62nd Berlin International Film
Festival in 2012. Later in 2012, Jeon unveiled The Weight at
Venice, where it picked up the Queer Lion before appearing
at numerous other festivals including Busan and Black Nights
in Tallinn where Jeon picked up the Best Director prize. Both
of his films were sold by Korea’s top art house distributor
FineCut, representing directors such as Kim-Ki Duk and other
leading Korean independents. Angry Painter is his seventh
feature.

Dawn
T
he film is based on Soviet propaganda story (most likely not too accurate)
about Young Pioneer Morozov, who denounced his father to Stalin’s secret
police and was in turn killed by his family. His life exemplified the only moral
duty of all good Soviet citizens: the good of the state is of the utmost importance.
In the film 78 years later we call him little Janis. He is a pioneer, who lives in the
Soviet collective farm “Dawn”. His father is the enemy of the collective farm (and
Soviet system). Little Janis betrays his father. The father is taking revenge on his
son. Who, in this old Soviet fairy-tale, is good and who is evil?
Unfortunately, totalitarian regime and dictatorship intending to transform people into dull screws of unthinkable mechanism is eternal subject disregarding the
limits of time and space.

Class Reunion
T
he three buddies Mart, Andres and Toomas are invited to the 25-year anniversary of their high school graduation. Actually, Mart and Andres are inclined to stay home, but Toomas talks them into going. He has organized
a great weekend with drinks, ladies and sauna as a warm-up event to the class
reunion. The question is whether they actually survive the Tallinn nightlife... and if
they ever arrive to meet their old class-mates!
The film takes a close look at the modern man at the very moment when he
discovers that he is no longer 18, but instead has reading glasses and is beaten
by love and excessive nose hair. Class Reunion is a comedy about old friends
who realize that at some point they have to grow up... for the most part at least.
The film is filled with scenes that are just as goofy, wacky and sometimes directly
vulgar, as they are recognizable and human.

Boderke, directed by Niels Nørløv Hansen.

Seneca’s Day
I
t is 1989, the final year of the Soviet era in Vilnius. Eighteen-year old buddies
establish the Seneca’s Fellowship. Their motto is: “Live each day as if it was
your last”. A love triangle breaks up the fellowship right at the time the nation
experiences an exceptional sense of community via the Baltic Chain. Twenty-five
years later, the main character, who appears to be accompanied by good luck at
first glance, is disillusioned with himself. He has betrayed the ideals of his youth
and became a cold observer of life. Life forces him to open up his own Pandora’s
box.

The Poet and The Spy
A
n intelligence official with a drinking problem named Gustav crosses his
monotonous paths with a beautiful gypsy woman who he falls in love with.
Unluckily, she turns out to be a Russian secret agent. The feeble mind
of a man in love is moreover blurred by poet Miku’s outlook on life that lacks of
concepts crippling the free spirit – discipline, order and allegiance. Gustav gets
his act together and decides to reject the gypsy, whereon the intelligence service
finds it necessary for their flirtation to continue. This leads the ones involved into
a complete dead end, as loyalty demands sacrifice.

November
T
he film is based on the Estonian bestselling novel Rehepapp by Andrus
Kivirähk. The story is a mixture of pagan magic, black humor and romantic
love. In a village where werewolves, the plague, and our ancestral spirits
roam, lives a young farm girl named Liina. She is hopelessly in love with village
boy Hans and lives out her desperate longing as a werewolf, running after her
beloved, ready to die in the name of love. For in her village, the real problem is
how to survive the cold, hard winter and neither stealing nor cheating nor losing
one’s soul is taboo. The villagers have become as soulless as the Kratt creatures
they command. Where does love fit into this world of pragmatism where anything
goes?

Bodom
R
econstructing a legendary campsite murder turns deadly when the girls
decide to rewrite history.
Every camper’s worst nightmare came true at Lake Bodom in 1960
when four teenagers were stabbed to death while sleeping in their tent. As the
years passed and the case grew cold, the unsolved mystery turned into an urban
legend, a creepy campfire story passed from generation to generation. Now, a
group of teenagers arrives at the same campsite, hoping to solve the murder
by reconstructing it minute by minute. As night falls, turns out not all of them are
there to play.
Tonight... it’s girls against boys. Let the killing games begin.

f you’ve been hit, one day you’ll hit back. If you aren’t loved, you won’t love
anyone, either.
I have friends who have said they’ve never seen their father. In response
I’ve said, don’t you have a mirror at home? Those who have a father call their
naturally inherent bad character traits genes passed down from their parents.
And they call their good traits their own. We need a microscope to find our
parents’ good attributes deposited into ourselves through reflective neurons. Yet
even without a microscope, the question arises: am I ready to be a father if my
father inside me hasn’t dissolved?

Romanek, captain of the starfleet geology team, is left behind as his
spaceship leaves uninhabited desert planet Ephestos without him.
Romanek’s oxygen levels are running low and hope is slowly
leaving him. While trying to get in touch with the ship that left him behind he
establishes contact, through a wormhole*, with 7-year-old Nele, who was playing hide and seek on earth. Romanek hopes to get rescued and Nele, unaware
of it, will help him rediscover the beauty and wonder of being alive in a place as
mysterious as the universe.
*A wormhole or Einstein-Rosen Bridge is a hypothetical topological feature that
would fundamentally be a shortcut connecting two separate points in spacetime.

Ice
H
arri is a lieutenant-colonel in the Estonian army embarking on missions to
Iraq and Afghanistan. He is divorced and only sees his 10-year old son on
holidays from time to time. Struggling with the guilt of not being there for
his estranged son, Harri decides to make up for lost time by going to an adventurous father-son winter trip to an island where he used to go with his father as a boy.
Harri decides to take the quicker way — a local ice road over the frozen sea. While
arguing with his ex-wife on the phone, Harri loses the tracks and an accident occurs. The car falls through the ice into the cold water. The father, who is used to
controlling every aspect of his life, is now faced with forces he cannot control. The
journey becomes a journey of survival on the edge of illusionary realities of life and
death. Ice tells the story of the importance of saying, “I love you” while there is still
someone there to listen.
Director Anna Hints
is a promising young director winning Kaljo Kiisa young
filmmaker’s award with her short film Free World. She has
studied literature, folklore and has BA both in photography
and film directing. She has a background of active years in
Estonian contemporary art scene since 2005. Anna’s personal and group exhibitions have taken place both in Estonia
and abroad. In her art she has explored the thin borderline of
public versus private, the backstage of our fears and desires,
the concept of memory both personal and cultural. Voice becomes an important means of expression; she often combines
old runic songs with voice improvisation and has composed in
all of her films.

The Master
A
dog Popi and a monkey Huhuu are waiting for
their Master to come home who is just one day
not coming any more... From this particular day
there starts their mutual life. Popi, being actually smarter and stronger capitulates in front of monkey’s whims
symbolizing with it his obedience and subservientness.
At the other hand, Huhuu symbolizes licentiousness and
silliness.
This is verity, more phantasmal than a dream and
more dreadful than truth.

Eternal Hunting Grounds
H
ere, the children bury the animals, decorate the graves, sing songs and
recite poems. The ritual surrounding the burial involves not just the children. The vegetation, the sea and the birds all take part in the ceremony.
The dead animals come alive again – they rise in the “Eternal hunting grounds.”
The children’s imagination stretches as far as the horizon, they visualize how it is
there. This vision is like a beautiful treasure inside of them. They love this game - it
is both important and exciting.
The hunter also lives on the island. He has killed the animals that the children
find. The hunter kills because he is hungry, or just because he likes to do it. He
sometimes lets his victims lie to decay in open air. The children collect them and
turn the hunter’s cruel actions into something good. One day the hunter shoots
a heron. This bird is bigger and more beautiful than any other animal the children
have found. This animated short film takes on the topic of child and nature, innocence and truth. What lies in between?

Impromptu
W
hy do we have to renounce music? Why would a talented and skilled
musician want to back away from the system, that helped him to reach
and understand music in the first place? Why would he want to reshape a working absolute into something that is based on personal preference?
Impromptu is an experimental concert film about people, who have dived
deep into improvisational music and explore its vast possibilities by breaking
notes in tiny splinters. They believe that their music can be the acoustic reincarnation of a soul. Forgetting the seams holding trichords together, you’ll find yourself in the fifth
or sixth harmonic parallel. Most likely alone but content. Thoroughly independent. These choices require abandoning any evaluation and also evaluators. The
only thing that exists is total subjectivity, simultaneously right and wrong. Moving
further means moving closer.

Tashi Delek!
T
ashi Delek! is a coming of age story of Tashi.
On a wider scale, it is a story about a small nation struggling to keep its
identity since opening of borders 22 years ago. It is a universal story about
the conflict between spiritualism and materialism.
Tashi is a normal 17 year old teenager who loves to play football and basketball, have fun with his friends and listen to pop music. He is also a monk
studying at Pema Tsal Sakya Buddhist Monastery, sent here by his parents at the
age of 6.
Soon, Tashi faces the most important decision in his life — whether to devote
his life to serving as a monk, or to leave the monastery and return to everyday
life, to try his luck at college and in business. We follow Tashi on his long journey
home through the Himalayas to visit his father, witnessing the present day life and
customs of one of the best preserved traditional Tibetan communities in the world.
Director Peeter Rebane
after graduation from Harvard University, 20 years ago,
Peter founded together with his brother Priidu region’s most
successful entertainment company BDG. Years later, he
continued his studies in the field of film, by taking courses in
the USC film school in Los Angeles and experimenting with
various film projects.
Peter’s last successful documentary Robbie Williams: Fans
Journey to Tallinn and concert film Robbie Williams Live in
Tallinn spread all over the world via the BBC. After the documentary, Tashi Delek!, Peter’s next work would be full-length
feature film Roman.

Anthill
A
nthill is a compilation of short novels about people who live in a giant garage complex in Lasnamäe (Estonia). During its long life the building has
changed from a simple garage to a utopian facility and become a key centre in Lasnamäe residential. The building that was meant to be a place for keeping
cars has developed into a different kind of establishments and services – many
of these far from car-related. First there were car services and stores, then diners,
cafes, and restaurants. The highlight of the complex is now a sauna. That is why
the bastion full of cars is even more expressive, weird, and unusual – a garage,
which reminds a time machine.

Fast Eddy ‘s Old News
E
d Vaar (1929 Kuressaare, Estonia – 2014 Toronto, Canada), a freelance
cameraman who earned his nickname Fast Eddy by often arriving at the
scene of accident before the police and CBC’s crime reporters. A lot of his
material was used on the TV by CBC. The rest – hundreds of hours’ worth of tape
that he didn’t manage to sell – is piled up in the rooms and the cellar at Eddy’s
penthouse in central Toronto.
Can you sell old news? What does Ed remember and what do his old film
reels say about his interests? When do one’s own preparations for death come
to an end and when do you change into a ward, a potted plant, a piece of furniture?
How does the end come for a person who has recorded the deaths and destruction of so many others for the infotainment industry?

Hey, Rasma!
J
ust like ordinary people, whole nations often wonder why their
neighbors are living better than they. If not other nations, then
at least Latvians often ponder why their neighbors Estonians
live as well as they do. So why is that? Could the answer have
some connection with Latvian cargo ship Rasma, that sank near
Mohni Island 75 years ago? Latvian ship Rasma is a reason to provoke the harmonious life of Northern Estonians living on the harshly
beautiful coast by questioning whether at least some basis of their
wellbeing might have come from the Latvian ship.

Arvo Pärt – Even if I Lose Everything...
“E
ven if I lose everything…,“ Arvo Pärt has written in his workbook. Fortunately for us, for a lot of years, Arvo Pärt has kept a diary. He calls
the diary his workbooks. In the course of decades, along with work at
musical texts, he has filled those work-books with his contemplations, with his
moments of grief and joy, with his finds, dis-coveries, worries and experience –
with everything that might be called the inner life of an artist. Through the years,
hundreds of such workbooks have accumulated. They are ordinary music books,
with the lines of life and death, the lines of love, crea-tivity, reason, imprinted on
the staves like the lines in his palm – altogether, a long path of life. As soon as he
was born, Pärt was capable of “swimming“ in the sea of music. And very early, the
music book for sounds and words appeared, like a cloth for wiping the tears of joy
and of sorrow. For a search for something that is nameless and has no end.
Director Dorian Supin
was born on 25 September in 1948 in Leningrad (now St Petersburg). In 1975 he started work at the Estonian Television
– first as an assistant cameraman and later as cameraman and
director at Eesti Telefilm, additionally writing some scripts as
well. Since 1997 Dorian Supin is a freelance cameraman and
film director. Together with six Estonian filmmakers, he founded
the film and television production company F-Seitse in 1998,
where he works to this day.

Out of Fashion
W
e live in an era of global consumption where the rate of consumption is
increasing exponentially. It’s no secret that the fashion industry is at the
forefront of this consumption rally. Thousands of factories in the third

toxic waste. Fashion designer Ret Aus has an ambitious plan to change the world.
Aus has realized that the only way to fight against the fashion industry is from the
inside. The documentary Out of Fashion follows Reet Aus’s journey from Tallinn,
through the fashion stages of Europe and the cotton plantations of South America,
and right into the epicenter of mass produc-tion in Bangladesh.
The documentary was filmed from 2009-2014.

Rough Stage
M
aher, a former political prisoner, an electrical engineer by profession, but
an artist at heart, is a man who starts a quest against the society in order
to stage a contem-porary dance performance in Palestine. But to do so
he must overcome several ob-sticles – time, money, insured dancer, his disapproving family and friends, and cul-tural norms. Set in today’s most contested
location, Maher’s story is at once a para-ble about a society in conflict, and a modern take on — and inversion of — The Jazz Singer, where the real war is between
dreams and tradition.

Positivus
E
stonian pop music enjoys good times at the moment. Here and there interesting acts pop up almost daily and global scope of our artists is growing
exponentially. Over three years the filmmakers of Positivus (working title)
have followed stage ca-reers of musicians of different styles and as a result they
have captured somewhat family portrait of current era. On one side the film gives
an almost encyclopaedic overview of who’s who in Estonian pop music of 2000s.
Yet on the other hand the acts and choices of film characters reveal the general
feeling of our times - cult of success, opportunism and vanity. The genre of the film
isn’t pretentious critical real-ism, but rather a musical comedy.

the battles of this war keep reoccurring on different battlegrounds in
the Eastern territories of con-temporary Europe. Young Estonian men
Andrey and Reimo have gotten killed sever-al times in these fights. Each time they
resurrect, because these are the rules of the game they play along with their comrades from a military club Frontline. Enthusiasts of different nationalities join such
clubs because of their appreciation for the memory of WW II as well as their love
of the hobby of reconstructing in detail the soldiers’ life-style of the era. SS-Untersturmführer Reimo leads the 20th division of Waffen-SS, Sergeant Andrey marches in advance of the Red Army’s 11th Rifle Division. The fight for history goes on.

Woman in the Glaciers
I
n the Tian Shan above the city of Almaty, four thousand meters high, there lies
the enormous Tuiksu glacier. Like a huge beast it breathes, approaches and
retreats again.
Global warming is ruthlessly melting the glacial ice, exposing prehistoric rock
layers, while another hard winter of the mountains covers them with ice and
snow again.
Every motion, crack, change in ice temperature, chemical composition and
colour of the glacier is closely monitored. Throughout the days and seasons, the
only woman who has been living next to the huge frozen glacier for many years, in
a wooden cabin high in the mountains, performs these measurements and sends
them to the monitoring center in Almaty. This woman is Aušra Revutaitė.
