Jan 01, 1971Among Tooming's filmic works, Endless Day provides perhaps the most eloquent material for investigating the radical renewal of visual and narrative form, as well as the shifting registers of spatio-social portrayals and critiques in Estonian cinema. It was banned in 1971 and ordered to be destroyed. However, the film was retained and restored in the 1990s.

Feb 03, 2017Dans un village païen d’Estonie où les loups-garous, la peste et les esprits errent, le soucis central des habitants est de survivre aux hivers rigoureux. Sans aucun tabou. Ils se volent les uns les autres, dérobent des biens à leur seigneur allemand et même au Diable quand l’occasion se présente. Tout est valable pour survivre ! Pour les aider, les villageois ont pour habitude de se tourner vers d’énigmatiques créatures filiformes faites de bois et de métal. Au milieu de ce chaos, une jeune fermière désespérée tombe amoureuse d’un citadin.
