Amidst the backdrop of World War II, Lauritz, the eldest of the Lauritzen brothers, faces the difficult decision of taking a stand. His family's economic assets are in Germany, as are his in-laws. However, Germany has occupied Norway, the brothers' homeland. Lauritz's eldest son is an SS officer stationed in Oslo, while his eldest daughter works in the Norwegian resistance. His second son is an officer in the Swedish navy, and his youngest daughter appears to be a spy. The war threatens to tear apart Europe and his family, and physical and moral survival becomes the only priority.
