The Singing Revolution

Director: James Tusty & Maureen Castle Tusty, Country: USA, Release: 2007, Runtime: 96, Rating: NR

"Imagine the scene in Casablanca in which the French patrons sing "La Marseillaise" in defiance of the Germans, then multiply its power by a factor of thousands, and you've only begun to imagine the force of The Singing Revolution." (NY Times)

First occupied by the Soviets in 1939, then by the Nazis, and then by the Soviets again, Estonia lived through decades of terror. By the end of World War II, more than one-quarter of the population had been deported to Siberia, were executed, or had fled the country. Music sustained the Estonian people during those years, and was such a crucial part of their struggle for freedom that their successful bid for independence is known as the Singing Revolution.

7:15PM Q&A with director/coproducer Maureen Castle Tusty.
