The true story of the Fiil's a family of innkeepers who during Nazi-Germany's occupation of Denmark took up arms against the German occupiers. But in the fight for freedom, some must die so that others may live.
We follow Tulle Fiil and her sister Gerda Fiil during WW2, who are sentenced to the horrors of German prison. At home at the inn in Hvidsten, Gudrun fights with her daughter Bitten to get her daughters home.
