In Kalevipoeg's country: Rakvere, Kaarli and Jõepere, 1970

Kalevipoja mailt: Rakvere, Kaarli ja Jõepere, 1970

Literary scholar Villem Alttoa and reporter Ivar Trikkel travel through the Rakvere area in search of places tied to Friedrich Reinhold Kreutzwald and the national epic Kalevipoeg: Rakvere's castle hill, the Kaarli settlement and Jõepere in Kadrina parish. At Jõepere a local resident tells the story of Lake Hobujärv and other Kalevipoeg tales, with his ten-year-old grandson joining in, and actor Hugo Laur reads from the epic.
