The new Estonian documentary film “Wanderers” will be screened on Saturday, December 7, at 14:00 in the Amalie cinema hall of the Narva Art Residency. Director Eva Sepping will also be present and will talk about filmmaking and Siberian experiences. The screening is free and it is part of the Narva city Autumn Capital programme.
Eva Sepping’s debut film is the story about migration and adaptation through the eyes of three different Estonian women living in Siberia. Linda (88) knows everything about the history of a small Estonian community, which is sometimes drained of blood. Linda is old enough not to be afraid of anything and even dare to go to Putin herself. Miili, in her best years, works in the local administration and, if necessary, goes to the parade and takes Putin’s “signed” birthday cards to retirees. Student Maša is still looking for her Estonian roots. She loves the local nature, but in the long run she considers her life in Russia intolerable, wanting to “return” to Estonia above all else.
