Writer Veera Saar remembers her homes around Ambla and Jäneda

Kirjanik Veera Saar meenutab oma kodusid Ambla ja Jäneda kandis

Writer Veera Saar talks to Peeter Hein about the places she called home in the north of Järvamaa: Ambla, Jäneda and Aruküla. She describes the people of the area she grew up among and the hard round of farm work that shaped them, the same village life that runs through her books. Between her memories actor Härmo Saarm reads passages from her writing. Ambla is an old parish village whose medieval church still stands at its centre.

Kirjanik Veera Saar räägib Peeter Heinale paikadest, mida ta Järvamaa põhjaosas koduks pidas: Ambla, Jäneda ja Aruküla. Ta kirjeldab kodukandi inimesi, kelle keskel ta üles kasvas, ja põllumehe rasket töörütmi, mis neid kujundas – sedasama külaelu, mis kulgeb läbi tema raamatute. Mälestuste vahel loeb näitleja Härmo Saarm katkendeid tema teostest. Ambla on vana kihelkonnaküla, mille keskel seisab tänini keskaegne kirik.
