    • The year is 1918. A new country has emerged on the map of Europe – the Republic of Estonia. The film focuses on ordinary schoolboys, who didn’t think much of going into battle to fight for the independence of the nation. The battles they face are of immense scale and proportion. Will, their reward be love, freedom or will they become mere memories as names engraved in marble?
