100 years of the Estonian Association of Architects

Fifteen years ago, the Union of Estonian Architects commissioned a film about its birth, history and activities. It was supposed to premiere at the gala celebrating the Union’s 85th year of activity, but after a few minutes the equipment started to malfunction, the film ended up in a drawer and was since forgotten. However, on the eve of the Union’s centenary, the film was dusted off and a fresh section on the activities of the past fifteen years was added.

In the film, all the leaders of the Union of Estonian Architects who could be interviewed during shooting the film talk about their time in office. Sadly, some of them have since passed away. Through the work of architects, hundred years of Estonian building history unfolds on the screen, in all its beauty and pain.
