Land of Mine
Under sandet
In the aftermath of World War II, a group of young German prisoners of war are forced by the Danish army to defuse the millions of landmines buried along Denmark's western coast by the Nazi occupation. Under the grudging supervision of a hardened Danish sergeant, the boys risk their lives daily, and a reluctant humanity slowly develops between captor and captives.
