Barricades for Freedom

Original title: Mūsu barikāžu laiks

Today they've become almost mythical, but in 1991 the Barricades were a reality of a national revival. The will of the three Baltic countries - Latvia, Estonia and Lithuania, showed that they were sovereign nation asking to accept their rights. What was this phenomenon? Was it a romantic ardency, destiny, conjunction, or God’s gift? Politicians, journalists and guardians of the Barricades discuss this topic in the film.
