Estonian New Animation I

A monochromic still life in the collective momory of Estonians: a large shadow of an ominous figure lurks above the country, cultural heritage needs cooperation to stay alive, alcoholism and rejection dance hand in hand in a circular game and tiny insects spoil the summer. But who knows better than us that even the dimly yawning world can see colorful dreams and remember sweet memories?
