Ivan Pavlyutskov says he cries every time he watches ‘Morten’, the Estonian youth film that will soon reach cinemas.

The director set out to make a film specifically for young people. The idea had interested him since he graduated from film school.

“Adolescence is a period of life in which a great deal happens dramatically, often some fairly terrible things as well,” Pavlyutskov said. “At the same time, as a person, you are very tender and vulnerable. I was interested in how to navigate adolescence, and how to examine and touch that sensitivity.”
