April 9th

In the early morning of April 9, 1940, the Danish army is alerted that German forces have crossed the border. A bicycle infantry company is sent ahead as a vanguard, among them Sekondløjtnant Sand (Pilou Asbæk) and Menig Andersen (Gustav Dyekjær Giese). Roni Ezra stays with these men as they are ordered to slow the advance until reinforcements arrive, a small country finding out how little a line on a map can hold.
