Konkursi kultuuritegelastest portreefilmide tootmiseks

Eesti Rahvusringhääling kuulutab koostöös Eesti Filmi Instituudi ja Eesti Kultuurkapitaliga välja konkursi portreefilmide tootmiseks, mis tutvustavad Eesti jaoks olulisi kultuuriloojaid.

Konkursi eesmärk on luua laiale vaatajaskonnale mõeldud dokumentaalfilmid, mis portreteerivad Eesti silmapaistvaid kultuuriinimesi. Projektiga soovitakse väärtustada eelkõige neid, kelle looming või tegevus on jätnud Eesti ühiskonda tunnetatava jälje ning kelle saavutusi omas valdkonnas võib lugeda tähendusrikkaks.

"Rohkem kui 13 aastaga on Eesti Televisiooni, Kultuurkapitali ja Eesti Filmi Instituudi toetusel valminud tänaseks juba üle 150 lühidokumentaalfilmi sarjast "Eesti lood". Samade koostööpartnerite algatusel loodavate uute portreefilmidega soovime jäädvustada meie ühiskonna jaoks olulisi suurkujusid, olgu nendeks siis teadlased, sportlased, mõtestajad või inimesed mõnelt teiselt alalt," ütleb EFI filmiekspert Kaarel Kuurmaa.

"Portreteerida teist loojat peaks olema filmitegijatele ahvatlev väljakutse. Häid portreefilme võiks olla märgatavalt rohkem kui neid viimastel aastatel on tehtud. Soovime ühendatud jõududega nende sünnile kaasa aidata, et meie väljapaistvate kaasaegsete mõtted ja teod jõuaksid suurte ja väikeste ekraanide vahendusel võimalikult paljude inimesteni," ütleb ETV peatoimetaja Heidi Pruuli.

Eesti Kultuurkapitali audiovisuaalse kunsti sihtkapitali nõukogu esimees Heilika Pikkov lisab: "Loodame, et filmitegijad lähevad süvitsi ja leiavad võtme, kuidas oma portreteeritavad loovalt lahti muukida, andes vaatajale võimaluse pääseda neile olulistele inimestele lähemale kui tavapärased intervjuud ehk võimaldavad ning jättes valminud filmide näol omakorda jälje Eesti kultuurilukku."

Ideede esitamise tähtaeg on 17. oktoober 2016, ideed tuleb saata aadressile portreefilm@err.ee.
Filmid jõuavad kinodesse ja seejärel ETV ekraanile 2018. aasta jooksul.
