The Kaitseliit (Defense Leauge) and it's auxiliary and subsidiary organizations at the summer celebrations of the 20th anniversary of the Republic of Estonia.
Content description from the Film Archive:
The film shows the Victory Day parade dedicated to the 20th anniversary of the Republic of Estonia and the Defense League and the preparations for it. We see Defense League members arriving in Tallinn on bicycles, cars and trains, their catering and echelons of chess players at the railway station. Freedom Square follows in a panoramic shot, where sixteen thousand kaitseliitlased, female home defenders, young eagles and home daughters are lined up - the parade is greeted by the commander of the Defense League, Johannes Orasmaa, and the chairman of the Defense League, General Johan Laidoner. President Konstantin Päts gives a patriotic speech (in sync), national flags are flying, optimistic marching music is playing. Close-ups of marching chess groups on Freedom Square alternate with panoramic and aerial shots of the parade.
Restored by artificial intelligence.

Taastasin filmi 'Relvastatud ravhas" teist korda. Tundub, et see kord tuli kvaliteet palju parem. Koloreerimine pigem langetas kvaliteeti, see ei tulnud eelmisel korral hästi välja.
