The filmmakers follow the life of a small rural school: learning in the classroom, games, lunch, physical education class. Leili Jõks, the soul of the school and teacher of all subjects, does her job with love and dedication, if only there were more pupils.

Allika poole mineja

Allika poole mineja

The sacrificial well is said to have magical healing powers and money, silver, jewellery or other items are sacrificed there. The water of the sacrificial spring has been used to cure eye and skin diseases, to wash away evil spirits and to wash away crimes. This playful documentary, with its dramatic overtones, celebrates the folklore and warns against the desecration of the source and of nature as a whole.

Endless Day

Endless Day

Among Tooming's filmic works, Endless Day provides perhaps the most eloquent material for investigating the radical renewal of visual and narrative form, as well as the shifting registers of spatio-social portrayals and critiques in Estonian cinema. It was banned in 1971 and ordered to be destroyed. However, the film was retained and restored in the 1990s.
