Puhdistus

Noorel prostituudil Zaral (Amanda Pilke) õnnestub põgeneda teda orjastanud vene maffia käest. Jälitajad tihedalt kannul, peidab ta end üksikusse talumajja oma ainsa eesti sugulase Aliide juurde. Kahe naise lugu ulatub aastakümnete taha ja hõlmab saatuslikku armastust ja armukadedust, viha ja vägivalda, sõda ja küüditamist, reetmist ja surma. Ebainimlikud olud võimendavad ebainimlikku käitumist, kinnisideid ja vihkamist. Kuigi aeg on nüüd teine, ei ole vägivald kadunud, see on ainult muutnud oma nägu.

The story of two women from two different eras linked by separate tales of deceit, desperation – and fear. Aliide has experienced the horrors of the Stalin era and the deportation of Estonians to Siberia, but she herself has to cope with the guilt of opportunism and even manslaughter. One night in 1992 she finds a young woman in the courtyard of her house; Zara has just escaped from the claws of the Russian mafia who held her as a sex slave. Aliide later finds out that the girl is related to her. Survivors both, Aliide and Zara engage in a complex arithmetic of suspicion and revelation to distill each other’s motives; gradually, their stories emerge, the culmination of a tragic family drama of rivalry, lust, and loss that played out during the worst years of Estonia’s Soviet occupation.
