TALLINN: The year 2020 was an extraordinary year for the Estonian film industry. The coronavirus pandemic had a devastating effect on the industry and cinema attendance all over Europe. However, on the positive side, the local market share of Estonian films rose to a record high, garnering 26.72% of the total number of cinema admissions. The per capita rate of cinema going in Estonia was still relatively healthy at 1.35.
The most watched film was Christopher Nolan’s
Tenet, which was partly filmed in Estonia. For most of the year, Estonia kept its cinemas open, with special security measures and conditions of keeping cinema halls half full.

Disney has announced a slate of 10 European projects commissioned for streamer Disney Plus and upcoming general entertainment brand Star.
French commissions include four-part Star original miniseries “Oussekine,” about the true events in 1986 that led to the death of a young student, created and directed by Antoine Chevrollier (“Baron Noir”) and co-written by Faïza Guène, Julien Lilti and Cédric Ido; and Star original documentary series “Soprano: Sing or Die,” which charts French recording artist Soprano and his friends’ history from their humble beginnings in Marseilles to their present-day success.
What TV show did I not binge. I loved
Baron Noir, another French. That was really, really good. I liked
Star Trek, the latest one. And Succession. That said, every time I start binge-watching things I look at all the books that I haven’t read in my library and it makes me feel really bad. It’s like, what am I doing with my life?”
Which album got you through 2020.
That’s the hardest question. I think the thing that perked me up the most was this Columbian electro album, but for me to name the title of it is another story, so let’s just say early Columbian electro.
