The Terror of the Gulls

The well-known fact that the first seagull was born in the small Estonian town of Loksa might not be true after all. Are these white demons capable of more than we think? Could they have been behind the mysterious Loksa catastrophe of 1955?

There's more than just questions in the air. There's also danger. And you might be in danger too.

A renowned expert begins an investigation into the origins of these birds and their unsettling behavior. Where did they come from and where are they going next? Is this just a local mystery... or the beginning of something far worse?

Matiias Viiking Ojaveski (1996) is an Estonian screenwriter and filmmaker born in Sweden. He has worked in the heritage department of the Estonian Film Institute, in the art department of film productions, and also as a cook. "The Terror of the Gulls" grew out of an absurd student film, which he developed over the years together with his course mates and eventually brought to life with virtually no resources. This is Matiias Viiking Ojaveski's debut film, with a tragicomic tone that clearly reflects his distinctive style.
