War unfortunately does not take serviettes. Now it knows in Ukraine and reminds me of the Danish movie Bombardment, how allies at the end of the war confused the Gestapo leadership with a school. Any war is a horror and this is unfortunately one of many proofs. The first half of the movie is more talkative and neutral, but the second one will crush you completely. There is no more suitable time to open such topics than the present time. Additionally, I also appreciate the filming here. Scandinavians simply know how to work excellently with our locations. ()
It wasn't an easy watch, especially in these times. It primarily showcased the unnecessary deaths of numerous civilians and provided an authentic portrayal of the events. / Lessons learned: casualties/injuries 10/35 nurses, 86/67 children. Total number of Danish civilians killed (including victims from the so-called French school): 140. Estimated number of Gestapo members and collaborators eliminated: 50-150 or 100-200. ()
