Editor’s note: In summary, Estonian Funeral (2021) showcases a delightful mix of humor, placing greater emphasis on character nuances rather than grand spectacles. Director René Vilbre offers a tight narrative that prioritizes emotional depth over superficiality. The standout performances, particularly from Markus Habakukk, Sandra Ashilevi, and Hilje Murel, lend the story a relatable touch. With a runtime of 1 hour and 32 minutes, it perfectly fits the storyline. While not flawless, its merits outweigh any minor shortcomings. If this theme resonates with you, be sure to add it to your watchlist.
