From the end of the Second World War until the fall of the Berlin Wall, thousands of citizens from East Germany attempted to flee across the Baltic Sea to Scandinavia. Danish author and journalist Jesper Clemmensen tells this piece of Cold War and world history through fascinating, moving and surprising escape stories. A story that interweaves Denmark, Sweden and Germany in a special way.
