Brother against Brother - Swing Lynn (1944)
"In "1944" (2015) Director Elmo Nüganen portrays the actual events on the Eastern Front in Estonia in 1944, from the Battle Of Tannenburg Line, the July fighting on the Sinimäed Hills, until November, when the Sõrve peninsula was already conquered by the Soviet Army.
The war is shown through the eyes of participants in the events on both warring sides - the Estonians who fought on the side of the German Army in the 20th Estonian division Waffen-SS, and as part of the 8th Estonian Rifle Corps of the Soviet Army.
For residents of Estonia, it was a war in which everyone made their own choices. It is with such hard choices facing the main characters of the film - the soldiers of the opposing sides Karl Tammik and Jüri Jõgi - as well as their comrades, relatives, friends, and even strangers."
