Major European coproduction input assured this Danish World War 2 resistance movement romance/drama of the scope and sweep required to turn Tage Skou-Hansen's 1957 neo-classic novel into a feature film. The story embraces a thriller component of underground action against the Germans with tender, subtle stories of love, gone right, gone wrong, among the freedom fighters and the women close to them.
