In collaboration with Estonian Television we once again offer to<br />
watch touching <strong>and</strong> deep documentaries all over Estonia, rate them<br />
<strong>and</strong> choose the best for the Estonian People’s Award.<br />
The beautiful West Estonian blanket will be given to the winner by<br />
the Minister of Culture Rein Lang as a result of televoting in the late<br />
night of July 7th. The theme for this summer is Life in Russia. Selected<br />
<strong>film</strong>s are not at all about life in the Kremlin or on the protestive streets,<br />
of which the news are enlightening the audience well enough. The<br />
docs of competition will take the spectators to the daily routine of<br />
ordinary people where the small world will suddenly take enourmous<br />
dimensions. Because human sorrow <strong>and</strong> joy, compassion <strong>and</strong> yearning<br />
for happiness are characteristic not just to Russians.<br />
To help the author of Your favorite <strong>film</strong> to win the Estonian People’s<br />
Award, please, call after the last broadcast on the phone number 1182<br />
<strong>and</strong> give Your vote!<br />
Between all callers we draw the prize a Tallink cruise for two persons<br />
to Al<strong>and</strong>.<br />
900 DAYS<br />
77 min. 2011, The Netherl<strong>and</strong>s (<strong>film</strong>ed in Russia)<br />
Is it better to acknowledge the almost unpalatable truth, or to embrace the comfort of a<br />
myth? From September 1941 until January 1944, Leningrad was sieged <strong>and</strong> blockaded by the<br />
Nazi army. Nearly three million inhabitants were trapped inside the city like rats. In subzero<br />
temperatures the people had to eat glue, leather soles, cats, <strong>and</strong> sometimes even their fellow<br />
human beings. After 900 days, almost a million people had died. All this took place in a country<br />
where propag<strong>and</strong>a was more important than the truth. For decades afterwards the survivors<br />
were forbidden to speak about what had happened to them so that the heroic myth of the<br />
“l<strong>and</strong> of victors” would not be undermined. And now, the myth is being revived. What starts<br />
as a <strong>film</strong> about personal testimonies of the blockade of Leningrad gradually turns into an epic<br />
story about how censorship, propag<strong>and</strong>a <strong>and</strong> fear get a grip on the memories of the main<br />
characters. A struggle that is still ongoing today.<br />
900 PÄEVA<br />
Režissöör Jessica Gorter (Holl<strong>and</strong>, <strong>film</strong>itud Venemaal)<br />
Haarav-dramaatiline lugu Leningradi blokaadist, kus enam kui kolmest miljonist elanikust nälgis<br />
surnuks iga kolmas ehk teisisõnu – hukkus üle miljoni inimese. Ei aidanud riiklik vale piisavate<br />
toiduvarude kohta ega uimastav propag<strong>and</strong>a, ellujäämise nimel sõid meeleheitel inimesed isegi<br />
lahkunud omaste liha. Venemaa ajalugu heroiseeriv propag<strong>and</strong>a püüab täna taastada illusiooni,<br />
et Leningradi blokaad polnud mitte stalinistide hoolimatusest põhjustatud suur tragöödia, vaid<br />
hoopis suur patriootlik kangelastegu.<br />

Koostöös Eesti Televisiooniga pakume kogu Eestimaale taas<br />
võimalust vaadata haaravaid ning sügava sisuga dok<strong>film</strong>e, hinnata<br />
neid ning valida parim Eesti Rahva Auhinnale. Kauni Lääne-Eesti<br />
kirjadega auhinnateki annab võitjale üle kultuuriminister Rein Lang 7.<br />
juuli hilisõhtul toimuva telehääletuse järel. Sellesuviseks teemaks on elu<br />
Venemaal. Ei, sugugi mitte elu Kremlis või Moskva protestimeelsetel<br />
tänavatel, mida uudistesaated valgustavad piisavalt nobedasti.<br />
Võistlustulle valitud dokid viivad vaataja tavainimese argipäeva, kus<br />
väike maailm muutub ootamatult suureks. Sest inimlik mure ning rõõm,<br />
kaastunne ja õnneigatsus pole omased üksnes vene inimesele.<br />
Et aidata Teie lemmik<strong>film</strong>i autoril võita Eesti Rahva Auhinda,<br />
helistage pärast viimase <strong>film</strong>i vaatamist telefonile 1182 ja <strong>and</strong>ke punkt<br />
oma lemmikule!<br />
Helistajate vahel loosime välja Tallinki kruiisi kahekesi Ahvenamaale.<br />
