Plot

In a haunting dance of two eras intertwined by deception and desperation, the film 'Purge' unravels the captivating tale of two women, Aliide and Zara, bound by the chains of their past and the haunting fear that engulfs their lives. Aliide, a survivor of the Stalin era, is a living testament to the atrocities of forced deportations and the dark shadows of opportunism that linger, her hands stained with the guilt of manslaughter. In the chilling year of 1992, she stumbles upon Zara, a young woman trembling in the courtyard of her home, barely escaped from the ruthless grip of the Russian mafia that exploited her as a sex slave. As the complexities of their relationship unfurl, it's revealed that blood ties them together. Both survivors, they embark on a fragile journey of suspicion and revelation, meticulously deciphering each other's motives. As the veil lifts, a tragic family drama, entangled in the throes of rivalry, desire, and loss, gradually surfaces, harking back to Estonia's darkest days under Soviet occupation. 'Purge' is a profound exploration of what it means to survive, the unbearable weight of guilt, and the unbreakable bonds of family, played out under the ominous shadow of history.
