Endless Day

1971 · 30 min

A slow, hypnotic plunge into fragmented images and muffled unease, like a half-remembered dream that resists easy sense.

Starring
Jaan Tooming
Overview
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.

About
