Isuri eepos (Q4247)
A 1984 film by Jüri Tallinn. Veljo Tormis' "Epic of Isurimaa" contains epic and lyrical folk songs in the ancient runic song form common to the Baltic Finns.

The translated reader's part allows the work to be performed in the original language - the Soikala dialect of the Izhur language.
