Summary: | This study is concerned with the memories of Estonians of watching
Finnish television during the last decades of the Soviet occupation. We will
look at the practices of watching Finnish television in Soviet Estonia and
the meanings attributed to it. Finnish television took North-Estonians into
a colourful world of consumption and entertainment, while at the same time
educating them about Western values and encouraging them to dream a better
future. |
