The tumultuous World War II era sees Estonia ravaged by internal strife as Estonian soldiers in the German army clash with their compatriots who were forcibly conscripted into the Soviet army, leading to a devastating conflict within the nation.

Director Elmo Nüganen's "1944" depicts the real events on the Eastern Front in Estonia, spanning from the Battle of Tannenburg Line to the Soviet Army's conquest of the Sõrve peninsula. The film shows the war through the eyes of participants on both sides, including Estonians fighting for the German Army and the Soviet Army, who were both forcibly conscripted. The story explores the difficult choices made by the main characters, including Karl Tammik and Jüri Jõgi, as well as their comrades, relatives, friends, and strangers.
