Marta Pulk

A young man tries to make sense of the world in the summer heat of late nineties Estonia.

In True, five strangers meet in a doctor’s office. In a changing world, even an innocent joke is enough to trigger an avalanche.

Six fresh short films on the topic "Own and Stranger" from even more fresh Estonian directors.

The documentary unveils the hidden and colorful facets of beloved Estonian writer Leelo Tungal, taking the viewer on a journey through her life, her family and national values—all shaped by the shifting winds of social and political change across decades. How is it possible to create something bigger than oneself and bring together generations on book pages, Eurovision stage and also under the arch of the Song Festival Grounds?

Nobody could have imagined that one day we would be forced to be isolated in our homes. That the police are roaming the streets, telling people to stay indoors. That the streets are silent and empty. That our relationships are tested with the simple inevitability of being together 24/7 in the same space. We all experienced something, whether it be painful or reflective, but it changed us. An international phone line was opened and people left messages reflecting their feelings, thoughts and experiences. 22 filmmakers from 15 countries united to make a visual-philosophical documentary of isolation.

More than anything, I want to rise into the air with you and share an arena – this could describe the choreography of Latvian dancers Artūrs Nīgalis and Mārīte Supe, where nearly two lifetimes are danced out. In the Riga Circus building, opened in 1888 and now reconstructed, endless longing, tears, emotionally charged equilibristics, truth, and duality revolve. Have our relationships also reached a circus-like amplitude? Estonian director Pulk seems to have found the answer to that.

A young woman takes on an audacious human experiment while testing the human limit of consuming culture and asking whether art has the power to change a life.
