The comedy Estonian Funeral , ( Eesti matus ) based on Andrus Kivirähk s play of the same name and directed by Rene Vilbre, will air in cinemas as the first Estonian film on June 4, instead of the planned August 20. We made a big decision and we re taking the risk of bringing the film to cinemas at the beginning of June. The audience has been waiting for the film for a long time and we can t let the audience down, one of the producers, Tanel Tatter, said.
He added that he hopes that the film will bring people back to the cinemas. We will organize a wide cinema distribution for the film to reach each corner of the state. Eesti matus is a film for the nation and it will provide entertainment for a wide audience, Tatter said.
