Summary The year is 1944. As the Battle of Tannenberg Line rages, Estonia finds itself helplessly trapped in the crossfire of two opposing forces. With the Red Army on the offensive, the severely outnumbered SS dig in to repel the Soviet advance on the Third Reich. Half of their infantry are back to their homeland wearing enemy uniforms. Forced to fight against their own brothers, these desperate young men now must find a way to survive one of the bloodiest conflicts of World War II. Official Estonian Submission for the **Academy Awards.** Official Selection at the **Palm Springs International Film Festival.** *"Ranking as Estonia's biggest domestic box office success...provides a harsh perspective on the country's painful 20th-century history." - Alissa Simon, **Variety*** *"...a handsome World War II drama..." - Stephen Dalton, **The Hollywood Reporter***
