May 1945 and the war in Europe has ended. German soldiers are put to work on the Danish coast, clearing mines buried on the beaches. It is a dangerous job and the Germans are young and inexperienced. One such unit is supervised by Sergeant Rasmussen, a veteran of the war and someone who hates the Germans and what they did to his country during the war. He takes his anger out on the young boys in his unit. However, over time his attitude changes.
