A bored future society starts to come alive with the addition of primary colors, as its world gradually becomes a groovy hippy paradise.

A collection of three short stories: "Veekandja," "Armastab!," and "Tüütu muusik."

Rein Raamat’s Hell adapts the engravings of Estonian graphic artist Eduard Wiiralt into a surreal, grotesque, and heavily sexual animated short. Wiiralt’s three source works, “The Preacher,” “Cabaret,” and “Hell,” date back to the early 1930s and portray a cacophony of bacchanalia, hysteria, and violence in the final years of Estonian independence amid the unrest of the Great Depression and European instability.

Documentary about the Tartu artist group centered around Ülo Sooster in the post-war decades. Valve Janov, Kaja Kärner, Silvia Jõgever, Lembit Saarts, Lüüdia Vallimäe-Mark and Heldur Viires were the first generation of artists who grew out of the Pallas spirituality, who missed out on the usual opportunity for self-improvement in Paris due to the outbreak of World War II. Instead, Saarts, Viires and Sooster spent the years 1949–1956 in Soviet prison camps. The story about a group of friends, made up of very different personalities, is outlined in long, calm monologues. The memory fragments of elderly artists form a complete story about the fate of an artistic generation.
