In Autumn of 1944 in Estonia, during World War II, Eetla leaves her homeland with thousands of others but decides not to board the last boat to safety. She returns to her seaside village and the lighthouse kept by her father Gottfrid. Her unexpected return is a mystery even to herself. Eetla finds solace in recounting her dreams to her father or a young war refugee doctor named Kasper, hoping to maintain a balance between her past and uncertain future. She fears losing this balance and seeks refuge in her dreams as a way to cope with reality.
'Somnambuul' is a psychological drama directed by Sulev Keedus, released in 2003. The film revolves around Eetla, a young woman who defies the approaching war frontline and returns to her Estonian village during World War II. Set against the backdrop of mass evacuation, 'Somnambuul' explores themes of fear, anxiety about the future, and the human psyche's response to uncertainty. Eetla's self-recognition and psychological journey are central to the narrative, with dreams serving as a coping mechanism for her reality.
