I really can't understand how films like this are being made today, after the Holocaust, Auschwitz, and the Einsatzgruppen. Maybe for Estonia the war was a problem of independence, but to fight in the German side (meaning: the Nazi side) doesn't have any excuse. Today we know that there were 21 battalions of Estonian Schutzmannschaft who helped the German Einsatzgruppe to massacre 1,400,000 Jewish men, women and children. All the "nice" men who we see in the movie are stinky pro-German Nazis, (actually they are Estonian Waffen-SS, ew!) and the only nice thing about this film is to watch them die. The Nazis appear in the film like nice men who save children, and the Soviets appear like monsters. Horrible movie. Twisted and biased. Never forget. We remember. 0/10.
