grivas15 This is a touching story of several women who have been sent to a remote Northern location for having cohabited with Germans and born (out of romance or out of rape, the system did not care) children from the "damned occupants", set at the end of World War II. The movie offers stark, cool scenes from everyday colony of several women and small children, their limp ex-veteran supervisor, how they cope with harsh reality, talk, reminisce, and hope for the end of the War.
