Fast-paced action comedy “The Dissidents” takes us back to the 1980s. Three Estonian guys flee Soviet Union, because they want to have as awesome life in the free world as they’ve seen in TV series “Miami Vice”, “Knight Rider” and “Santa Barbara”. Swedes welcome friends as real heroes, who broke through the Iron Curtain. But as the media circus blows over, our dissidents discover that they’ve become nothing more than tedious immigrants. To put food on the table, they have to do something as lame as… work! But the boys are no quitters, so they come up with new crazy plans that should guarantee success in the Western world. That’s when things go totally insane!
“The Dissidents” stars Märt Pius (“1944”, “Zero Point”), Karl-Andreas Kalmet (“1944”) and Veiko Porkanen (“Ghost Mountaineer”). Henrik Kalmet, Ott Sepp, Marika Barabanštšikova, Tõnu Kark, Andres Dvinjaninov, Esko Salminen and many others.
The film is directed by Jaak Kilmi (“Disco And Atomic War”, “Revolution of Pigs”), original screenplay written by Martin Algus (“Class Reunion”) and produced by Taska Film (“Class Reunion”, “1944”). Cinematographer is Aigars Sērmukšs, art director Katrin Sipelgas, costume designer Anu Lensment and editor Tambet Tasuja.
Inspired by a certain era, the story, events and characters in this film are fictional. Any resemblance to real life people, names or events is coincidental.

A city is infected by a virus that turns people into monsters. To prevent the infection from spreading, the military quarantines the city.
A few non-infected – ethnical Swedes and immigrants – fight to survive the war zone. As the infected close in, the old animosities escalate to boiling point – at which point the non-infected have to ask themselves: “Who are the real monsters? The infected – or our old enemies?”
At the same time, they discover a secret – a secret that changes not only the way they see the infection, but also the way they see themselves.
Now they have to bring this secret beyond the perimeter – before the military unleash a fire storm, turning the city into a sea of flames.

The Battle of Tannenberg Line, often referred to as the Battle of the European SS. The bloodiest conflict on the Eastern Front. Volunteer infantry battalions from Denmark, East Prussia, Flanders, Holland, Norway and Wallonia within the Waffen-SS fight off Soviet Army's thrust at Germany.
Half of the SS infantry consists of local Estonian conscripts motivated to resist the looming Soviet re-occupation of their small country. Motivated until they meet their brothers in the Soviet Army. Men brought out of Siberian labour camps and now returning home. Today 70 years on, the makers of Estonia's biggest ever box-office success “Names in Marble”, try to show the hopes, aims and drama of these men and the ones close to them as objectively as possible. A thrilling war movie, full of action, love, tears and laughter takes us back to one of the most controversial events in history.
