The Revolution of Pigs is a 2004 Estonian comedy film that was a feature film debut for two young Estonian directors René Reinumägi and Jaak Kilmi. Fueled by a great soundtrack of classic ‘80s pop, the revolution is brewing. Set in the summer of 1986, hundreds of teenagers have gathered in the woods for Estonian student summer camp—three days full of adventures, falling in love and partying. But, when the teens are forced to comply with rules of proper behavior, camp in a totalitarian system is not all it is cracked up to be.
