Another View of WW2 - The Birdcatcher review by CP Customer
Interesting film covering what life was like for locals in Norway during the war and in particular a Jewish girl trying to escape and the pitfalls that she had to overcome. Not an outstanding film but it did highlight some of the issues current at the time in Norway.
