Spent a day in Estonia this summer. Our tour guide took us to the HUGE open amphitheater that was ground zero for the Estonian's revival against communism. They recommended we watch this movie.
It was VERY powerful. My heart goes out to those courageous Estonians who risked Gulags, Concentration camps, and demotion/exile just for expressing a free conscience. This is a great film (unless you are a progressive statist who wants to clamp down on free speech, and wants the government to supervise everybody while toeing the party line).
Get it from Amazon, or just rent it from the library...we NEED that unity of purpose, that defiance of oppressive federal authority that earned them their freedom in 1992 after 53 years of dogma, sacrifices, arbitrary rules, and monotone propaganda media.
