Welcome to North-East of Estonia

The most mysterious region on the border with Russia - with post-industrial landscapes, idyllic wetlands, medieval castles and soviet-times architecture, ghost towns and modern industry, abandoned oil shale mines and quarries neighboring the orthodox monastery.

Many films and video productions have found outstanding locations in the region - we invite you to find yourself and your future projects in this cinematographic area with an attitude.
