DATES AND TICKETS
Tangerines is the first Estonian Oscar candidate in the country's cinematic history. Poetic and humanist, the film shows characters who live in difficult times and under extremely complicated circumstances – and still do not lose their humanity.
The other kids at the elite school, in which Johannes is transfered, make sure he knows that his place in the hierarchy is at the bottom. Based on Margus Karu's Estonian bestseller, director Mihkel Ulk created a compelling drama.
Chintis Lundgren’s animated cat-and-rat film about opposites attracting each other has won several awards. It also shows that no alcohol is no solution either.
Young people from Estonia fought on the side of Hitler-Germany against the red army of Stalin. The movie shows the brutal reality of war, but contains also a lot of poetic sensitiveness, showing the hope and fear of the young soldiers in an authentic way.
