Digitally remastered in 2008
This Estonian feature film is among the few films produced before 1940 that have been almost fully preserved. Three young men have become friends during the times of the Estonian War of Independence. While fighting for their fatherland, they experience both hazardous and romantic moments without losing their bravery, coolheadedness and sense of humour. The film is full of epic battle scenes, patriotism and pathos. „Young Eagles“ was digitally remastered and returned to the big screen in 2007 accompanied by the specially compiled background music.
