Copenhagen, 1943. Ten-year-old Annemarie Johansen races through the streets with her best friend Ellen Rosen, only to be stopped by Nazi soldiers who control their occupied city. This seemingly innocent moment marks the beginning of a profound transformation. The girls are shaken but try to hide their fear from their mothers. Mrs. Rosen's advice to her Jewish daughter reveals their precarious situation: "Always blend into the crowd. Never be noticed by the soldiers." The German occupation has already changed everything. King Christian X, once seen proudly riding his horse through Copenhagen streets, barely survived a fall. Annemarie's older sister Lise died mysteriously before her wedding. Peter, Lise's fiance, has transformed from a fun-loving friend to a serious, hurried man whose visits grow increasingly mysterious. Even Annemarie's father seems diminished, his spirit crushed under occupation. Only in the stories Annemarie tells her five-year-old sister Kirsti does the world remain predictable and safe. But fairy tales with happy endings feel increasingly distant from their reality of rationing, curfews, and constant fear. As Annemarie whispers "And they lived happily ever after" to complete Kirsti's bedtime story, she unconsciously highlights the growing gap between childhood innocence and the harsh world closing in around them. The contrast is striking-in a world where soldiers patrol the streets and friends must hide their identities, stories offer only temporary escape.
