1944 is a 2015 Estonian war drama film directed by Elmo Nüganen (Names in Marble). In occupied Estonia, Karl Tammik, stationed at the Tannenberg Line, fights in the Waffen-SS while Jüri Jõgi has to serve as an officer in the Red Army. Like thousands of their compatriots, the young Estonians somehow want to survive the war and they have no choice. Either they go for the Russian occupiers to arms or stand under Hitler's banner in the Waffen-SS. The fate of the two soldiers exemplifies the story of a whole country that was almost crushed between the mills of two great powers, forced into a war. It was selected as the Estonian entry for the Best Foreign Language Film at the 88th Academy Awards but it was not nominated.
An MP40 is very briefly seen being reloaded by the medic SS-Oberschütze (Private 1st class) Elmar 'Säinas' (Pääru Oja). Due to a continuity error, the MP40 turns into an STG-44 when he gives it to Ants Saareste.
The PPS-43 is also used by Vladimir Kamenski (Karl-Andreas Kalmet), Abram Joffre (Kristjan Sarv), Alfred Tuul (Martin Mill), and several Soviet soldiers.
Karl Tammik (Kaspar Velberg), Anton Käärid (Märt Pius), Raadik (Priit Strandberg), and several other Estonian soldiers wield Karabiner 98k equipped with hooded front sights. German soldiers can also be seen with Kar98ks.
Soviet soldiers and members of the Estonian civil defense squad are armed with Mosin Nagant M91/30 rifles. A scoped Mosin Nagant is used by Prohhor Sedõhh (Rain Simmul).
Tokarev SVT-40 rifles are seen by carried Soviet soldiers. Estonian SS-Oberschütze Vladimir Kamenski (Karl-Andreas Kalmet) uses an SVT equipped with a PU sniper scope to defend the Tannenberg Line.
The Sturmgewehr 44 is used by Estonian soldiers, especially the leader of the squad SS-Oberscharführer (Technical sergeant) Ants Saareste (Gert Raudsep) and SS-Rottenführer (Corporal) Kristjan 'Põder' (Hendrik Toompere Jr. Jr.) during the trench fighting. After his Sturmgewehr 44 runs empty he exchanged it with a PPSh-41.
