The village shop at Jaama, 1986

Leo Ilves's short film spends ordinary days in the village shop of Jaama in Jõgeva district, the place where all the news gathers. Women compare their cabbage and potato harvests, the delivery van arrives and the first question is whether vodka came too. Meat is chopped, the customers are let in, and shopkeepers Aino and Lembit Orav serve them with plenty of talk.

Eesti keeles

Leo Ilvese lühifilm veedab argipäevi Jõgeva rajooni Jaama külapoes, kuhu koonduvad kõik külauudised. Naised arutavad kapsa- ja kartulisaaki, saabub kaubaauto ja esimene küsimus on, kas viina ka tõite. Liha raiutakse tükkideks, rahvas lastakse poodi ja poepidajad Aino ja Lembit Orav teenindavad neid ohtra jutuajamisega.
