Loosely based on real-life events, this Scandinavian war flick's premise, is pretty appealing: three German and two British airmen find themselves stranded in the cold and harsh Norwegian wilderness after they shoot down each other's planes during World War II. After taking shelter in the same cabin, the two enemy groups realize that in order to survive, they need to put aside the rules of war and work together to survive.

Plot summary from IMDb: In World War II, the German pilots Lieutenant Horst Schopis, Josef Schwartz and Wolfgang Strunk crash their airplane in the wilderness of Norway after shooting down a British airplane. They walk through a snow storm until they reach shelter in an abandoned hunter cabin. Soon the British pilot Captain Charles P. Davenport and the gunner Robert Smith arrive in the cabin and they become prisoners of the German pilots. However, after the initial friction between the enemies, they realize that they should team-up to survive in the wilderness in the beginning of an improbable friendship.
