NeoFlix, the integrated e-commerce and fulfillment service provider for independent film distribution, proudly announces the addition of its newest client, filmmakers James Tusty and Maureen Castle Tusty and Mountain View Productions.
About the Film
First occupied by the Soviets in 1939, then by the Nazis, and then by the Soviets again, Estonia lived through decades of terror. By the end of World War II, more than one-quarter of the population had been deported to Siberia, been executed, or had fled the country. Music sustained the Estonian people during those years, and was such a crucial part of their struggle for freedom that their successful bid for independence is known as the Singing Revolution.
THE SINGING REVOLUTION is the first film to tell this historically vital tale. "This is a story that has not been told outside Estonia," said filmmaker James Tusty, who is of Estonian descent. "We felt it was time the rest of the world knew of the amazing events that happened here."
About James Tusty and Maureen Castle Tusty, Directors/Producers
JAMES TUSTY and MAUREEN CASTLE TUSTY are the primary filmmakers of "The Singing Revolution." They conceived the film, meticulously researched the subject matter, and worked collaboratively as Producers/Directors/Writers on the project. This is the Tusty's first feature film. Prior to "The Singing Revolution," they have separately and together produced hundreds of programs, including television programs, TV commercials, and corporate films for some of the largest corporations in the world including Coca-Cola, GE, and IBM. Both have extensive international experience, having shot films in over thirty countries around the world. Maureen's work has been seen on U.S. public television and she is an adjunct faculty member of Tallinn University in Estonia, where she teaches film production. Jim has prior experience with Eastern European production. He produced several Russian language programs for McGraw-Hill that were shot in multiple locations in Russia in 1986 and 1988, and immediately after the dissolution of the Warsaw Pact, he produced a fifteen-part series on free market economics for Hungarian television. Maureen Castle Tusty and James Tusty together run Mountain View Productions, Ltd., under which banner "The Singing Revolution" was produced.
