The Heroes of Telemark

In the grips of World War II, German forces have seized control of Norway, their ruthless occupation leaving local resistance fighters with no choice but to strike back covertly. Among these heroes is Knut Straud, an experienced and dedicated combatant who recognizes the potential of an unlikely ally in Rolf Pedersen: a physicist whose understanding of the enemy's nuclear ambitions could mean the difference between victory and defeat. Rolf initially resists his recruitment due to the moral implications of using scientific knowledge for warfare, but as the stakes rise higher than ever before, he relents - joining Knut in an audacious mission to sabotage a vital German heavy water production facility located deep within rural Telemark. This thrilling wartime drama showcases the bravery and ingenuity of ordinary people rising against overwhelming odds, all set amidst the breathtaking landscapes of occupied Norway.
