Sinekatalog’s take

A Danish ambassador in Washington declares himself the voice of a free Denmark during the occupation. The film is a thoughtful historical drama about defiance and diplomacy. A dignified, absorbing period piece for lovers of history.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
