Europe 1990. Katrine, a daughter of a Norwegian woman and a German occupation soldier, raised in East Germany and living in Norway, finds her happy family life disrupted when she refuses to testify about her time as a "war child". Katrine is a woman raised in an East German orphanage after the Nazis stole her from her Norwegian mother. Years later, she managed to escape from East Germany to track down her mother, and by 1990 is at the heart of a happy, bustling Norwegian family. But when a young lawyer calls, determined to recruit her in a claim for compensation from the new postunification German state, Katrine is forced to confront her secret past as a "war child" in East Germany, and these revelations threaten to destroy the happy life she has built in Norway.
