An American bomber is shot down on the Norwegian coast during World War II. The airmen bail out and land at different locations. In spite of the German search for them, the Norwegian resistance picks them up and hides them in the attic of the local church, a center of operations. Things become tense, however, when the hideout is spotted by a notorious collaborator, and soon the protagonist, Hans, has to get the airmen to Sweden.

Recorded during World War II, this rare color film traces an RAF Bomber Command night attack on Berlin -- from strategic planning and preparation to the execution of the actual attack with Avro Lancaster bombers. Air Commodore H.I. Cozens filmed the events during a period when the Bomber Command flew into Germany nearly every night for a massive series of raids on key targets.

With the help from reconstructions and memories, several people recall the fateful days when the German warship 'Altmark' carried British prisoners of war in Norwegian waters, prior to Hitler's decision to have Norway occupied.

Two weeks after Norway was attacked in April 1940, the Norwegians fought a desperate battle against the world's largest military force in anticipation of the Allied aid. When it finally arrived, it was anything but expected. This is the story of when the whole country was in war, told by those who were actually present. British, French, Polish and Norwegian war veterans who participated in the campaign in Norway are interviewed about their experiences.

In the winter of 1943-44 RAF Bomber Command was sending massive raids almost every night into the heart of Germany. This is the story of one of them, an attack on Berlin, probably the most heavily defended target of them all and one which made terrible demands on the courage of the aircrew. On the long, cold and desperately dangerous missions over Northern Germany and back to a difficult landing in wintry England, thousands of men died or suffered ghastly injuries. One must imagine that they were terrified much of the time, but there is very little sign of doubt or anxiety on the brave faces in Iliffe Cozens' film. Although certain scenes had to be re-created for technical reasons, the raid is a real one and there are no actors.

During August 1943 the Nazis advance is stopped. In Sweden there are both German Gestapo agents and Norwegian Resistance men active.

Sixty years ago, Norway’s Nazi invaders saw a perfect opportunity to further Himmler’s “Lebensborn” program, by encouraging their soldiers to have affairs with Norwegian women, often with Aryan features, and breed “racially superior children.” After the war the women children were sent to prisons and asylums.
