Synopsis
1941, Estonia. As Stalin's brutal Red Army crushes everything in its path, Katarina battles to protect her grandmother's precious legacy – the weaving of gossamer lace shawls stitched with intricate patterns that tell the stories passed down through generations. Meanwhile Lydia is suffocating in her prison of privilege in Moscow, yearning for freedom and to discover her beloved mother's Baltic heritage escapes to Estonia. Soon, these two young women find themselves in a fight for life, liberty and love.
