Among Tooming's filmic works, Endless Day provides perhaps the most eloquent material for investigating the radical renewal of visual and narrative form, as well as the shifting registers of spatio-social portrayals and critiques in Estonian cinema. It was banned in 1971 and ordered to be destroyed. However, the film was retained and restored in the 1990s.
A film about Soviet Estonia.

One day, however, a grandchild arrives at the house, who immediately grabs the full attention of all those around him.

Mason Johannes Ööbik flees home to commit suicide. But instead begins a journey through Estonia, accompanied by a deep sense of hopelessness. Johannes is not one bit distinguishable from the surrounding environment and ideals. The main character's quest sends a stunningly realistic view of Estonia at the time, with medium and people.
