In 2023, Tallinn held the title of the European Green Capital, in the wake of which Joosep Matjus and Katri Rannastu made the documentary “Greener Tallinn”. Through four seasons, the diverse natural landscapes and environments of the Estonian capital reveal themselves layer by layer. This is a tribute to Estonian nature that is right here, in the city around us. Matjus's previous film “The Wind Sculpted Land” won the hearts of many Estonians and showed us what an idyllic environment we live in.

Known for his poetic and sensitive storytelling style, the director premieres his new film at PÖFF.

The film music created by Tauno Aints was recorded by the Tallinn Chamber Orchestra with its chief conductor Tõnu Kaljuste. What makes the premiere special is that the music does not come from a film tape, but is performed live by the same ensemble.

Film is screened at Environmental Film Programme's Opening Screening
