It was during the years of 1989-1991, when the Congress of the Communist Party of the Soviet Union made the decisions that enabled the Baltic States to break away from the empire that once had occupied the countries. The crowning achievement of Estonian politicians in Kreml was disclosing of the secret protocols of Molotov-Ribbentrop Pact and declaring them null and void. Distributing the ideas of Estonian politicians among the national representatives in Moscow, intensive collaboration with Boris Yeltsin and Russian democrats made the communist empire to collapse. This documentary aims at correcting the widely-spread misconception that regaining their independence was a miracle or the result of lucky coincidences for the Baltic states.
