Description

This poster captures a moment in Estonian cinematic history — the film “Jõulud Vigalas” is anchored in its time, and the poster’s artwork by Ülo Emmus reflects that context. Produced by Tallinnfilm and published in 1980, the poster invites the viewer into the narrative of the film and the era. It’s a vivid piece of visual culture, showing how film, design and language (Estonian + Russian) intersected in then-Soviet Estonia.
