Her latest movie, a reflective war documentary Blood Type ("Veregrupp" 2013)about Estonian soldiers in Afghanistan was a success in cinemas across the country and has earned her the nickname Estonian Kathryn Bigelow.

As she continues to be drawn to extreme challenges and serious topics, there's a new short action fiction movie by her, A Pilot Without Wings, now in production, premiere date expected in December 2014.
