It was only yesterday that we invited some twenty well-known filmmakers to Tartu and Southern Estonia for a residency to explore the future European Capital of Culture with the aim of finding a place, a person, an environment, and a story that could be a film.

These discovered stories have become eight films, and we invite you to their premieres. On this wild evening, the events will take place in eight locations across Southern Estonia, all streamed simultaneously.

Please RSVP on this website.

NB!

Piirissaar welcomes us in its authenticity. We will head together to the yard of an islander. We will have a roof over our head, but Piirisaar is know to have stronger gusts of wind. We recommend that you dress warmly and we will also have blankets on site and offer you a hot drink.

Evening schedule
16.00 Wild welcome drink and a light snack
17.00 Speeches and connections with other premiere locations, followed by a short break
18.00 Premiere of the film
21.00 Afterparty at Anne sauna

How to get to Piirissaar?

The ship to Piirissaar leaves from Laaksaare Harbour at 15:30. After a 45-minute trip, we will reach the island and take a joint walk to the location. After the premiere the boat will also take us back to Laaksaare.

You must be at the harbour at least 15 minutes before departure. Cars can be left at the harbour. The boat trip is free on charge.

Ride-sharing to the harbour

There will be guests who drive to the premiere and might have a free seat. And then there are those looking for transport to get to the premiere. Here is an opportunity to make ends meet, perhaps offering a ride or finding a ride.

Afterparty at Anne sauna

Welcome to the wild afterparty at Anne sauna in Tartu! But the clothes stay on this time, and instead of a sauna, we heat up the dance floor! We welcome DJs from home and abroad. However, we remember to respect the gods of the sauna—we have the opportunity to learn various sauna customs and activities. The evening is encouraged by the Hulkur bar and a selection of street food.

Address: Anne 44, Tartu
Parking is available next to the venue.
