Year 1208. The first Eastward enlargement of Europe is under way. Brutal forces of the Teutonic Order are steadily marching on. In their path live a simple and peaceful people, whose main pastimes include cultivating the earth, singing and, if possible, doing both at the same time. They are the Estonians. Ignorant in the ways of war, they find an unlikely leader in a young boy with Catholic upbringing. In their fight for freedom, the Estonians encounter numerous obstacles, including the Germans, French, Russians and, worst of all, the Latvians. Will they succeed in defeating their enemies or will they experience a cultural awakening?

When Joko, Ants and Reeda, all in their own good reasons, first enter a casino, they can't possibly be aware of the very existence of the demons inside them. Soon enough, they will know. But then it is already too late and their lives are suddenly caught in a fatal vortex.

В фильме рассматриваются военные события, происходившие в Эстонии в 1944 году, в период от июльских боёв в Синимяэ до ноября, когда полуостров Сырве был уже завоёван войсками Советской Армии. Война показана глазами участников событий с обеих враждующих сторон - эстонцев, которые воевали и на стороне немецкой армии в 20-й эстонской дивизии Waffen-SS, и в составе 8-го Эстонского стрелкового корпуса Советской Армии. Для жителей Эстонии это была война, в которой каждый делал свой личный выбор. Именно с таким нелёгким выбором сталкиваются главные герои картины - солдаты противоборствующих сторон Карл Таммик и Юри Йыги - а также их сослуживцы, родные, близких и совсем незнакомые люди...

Taarka
Ain Mäeots
Inga Salurand, Siiri Sisask
The first film in the Seto language in the world speaks about the brightest heroine of a small people, the folk singer Hilana Taarka, a woman who lived her whole life as an outcast in a small chimney-less hut; as an unmarried mother of children in poverty, begging her bread, doing odd jobs and singing. She always sang the truth, sometimes bitter, sometimes funny, sometimes cruel. She was feared, despised and coveted. Taarka sang throughout her remarkable life, throughout her fate, from a small Seto village to international fame. And she sang well. Really well. Taarka became the Mother of the Song, a legend. But as a woman, as a member of the community, the Seto people never really accepted her. Taarka - a despised woman and a worshiped singer.

Katariina Unt, Ivo Uukkivi
There are two people who wake up in the same bed one morning, and neither of them has a clue who the other is. Viivi would like to run away and the man is sleeping like a log. Unlike Viivi and Andu themselves, the viewers know both very well. They know that Viivi has the worst day in her life and that Andu is a dweeb, but not completely hopeless; a rather good-hearted man. They are both hopelessly lonely people hoping that maybe there's someone somewhere - So they might as well meet.
