It is the night of March 25, 1949. A full moon hangs over Estonia. Endless rows of cattle cars are waiting to transport thousands of Estonian families, asleep in their homes, to Siberia. The Stalinist regime is ready to treat people like animals.

Under a heavy Estonian moon, rows of cattle cars wait to swallow entire families into the frozen void of Siberia. This haunting portrait captures the quiet terror of a regime turning human lives into mere cargo.
