Talented musician Ingrid Rosenberg prepares to go to her dream school while experiencing the wonders of first love-with the nephew of the leader of the local Nazis. Together, the family will do whatever it takes to return to normal lifebut will it be enough?By the end of the war, Norway had lost a higher percentage of its Jews than almost any other country in Europe.

Norway wasnt too small for Hitler, and for some families, it was everything.
