Estonia in 1944 was treacherous and changed three times a day, just like no one knows whose flag will be flying on the tall Herman Tower in Tallinn tomorrow, this film has almost no male protagonist, and the too fast killing makes the The audience does not dare to easily substitute themselves, just like the little Estonia sandwiched between Germany and Russia dare not choose a side easily. In fact, both sides are beasts with no content. It makes sense for the little sheep to choose or not to choose who to be friends. ? The biggest significance may be that the nationalists who want to get rid of chestnuts are ridiculed by their fellow countrymen after their disgrace, just like the drunken Estonian SS fighters in the film fiercely want to kill all the Bolsheviks in Estonia, because Maozi drove their whole family to Siberia, but Maozi It is easier to get revenge on the natives. Ugh! Is this the only way for weak nations?

When Yuri Yogi, an Estonian soldier on the German side, gave the letter from the Estonian soldier Karl Tamik on the Soviet side to his sister, I thought it would be a story of an enemy turned friend and then brother-in-law. Can't do it. Remember: this is 1944, not 1945. As long as the war is not over, death will not stop. It is already very satisfying for the audience to bury the bodies of both sides together; With the Gulag, it was not possible to make this film until the Maozi Empire collapsed on 8·19.

The 38-minute bridge between the little girl and the rag doll suddenly reminded me of the 8-year-old child in Wuhan who received the urn. In the future, the only relative will be one of his dolls, right?
