The Singing Revolution
Charlotte Premiere Screening
October 21 , 2008 - Ballantyne Village Theatre
Through historic footage and one-of-a-kind interviews, The Singing Revolution tells the powerful story of Estonia's peaceful path to freedom. The documentary chronicles the 1991 gathering of hundreds of thousands of Estonians. Their only mission was to sing forbidden patriotic songs as a way to defy decades of Soviet occupation, and their charge helped herald the collapse of the Soviet Union. The Helms Center received an overwhelmingly positive response to the event, and a short reception was held after the screening. |

| "The Call of the Entrepreneur"
“The Call of the Entrepreneur” follows the lives of three entrepreneurs – a merchant banker, a dairy farmer, and a refugee from Communist China. One risked his savings. One risked his farm. One risked his life. Why do these stories matter? Because how we view entrepreneurs - as greedy or altruistic, as virtuous or vicious - shapes the destinies of individuals and nations.
