Quisling: The Final Days

Director:
Erik Poppe

Five years of occupation come to an end on May 8, 1945. The rebuilding of Norway can now begin, but first, the final chapter must be written. In a dark cell at Akershus Fortress sits the man who committed the greatest betrayal of all: Vidkun Quisling. Now he must be held accountable for his actions and the atrocities caused by Nazi ideology. But first, he is to meet with the spiritual advisor and priest, Peder Olsen. Can this priest, himself scarred by the brutality of the war, help the man who was on a first-name basis with Hitler find peace of mind?
