War rages throughout Europe, and soon Denmark is occupied by Nazi Germany. The occupation drives a wedge between Karl, the successful owner of a vast electronics factory, and his son Aksel. The younger man reacts to the increasing oppression and persecution of Jews and communists by joining the rising resistance movement.
"Set in Denmark during World War II, this movie tells the story of a family who ultimately succumb to the military regime in order to save their lives. The production points to a dichotomy between those who were against Nazism and became hostages of it due to the situation they were in. The script is comprehensive and deals with many details of the conflict and requires the viewer to have knowledge of the subject - especially on the Danish side - otherwise they may end up getting lost in the story."
