Hullumeelsus (1969) AKA Madness

As World War II draws to a close, a Gestapo squad marches into a remote insane asylum with orders to exterminate the patients—only to receive an anonymous tip that a British spy is hiding among the residents. Officer Windisch must root out the impostor from hundreds of patients within days, and in doing so, begins losing his own grip on sanity and faith in the cause he serves. Note: hailed as Estonia's first truly modernist feature film, this allegorical satire of authoritarianism pushed so far past the boundaries of Soviet propriety that it was banned from theaters for nearly two decades.
