Resolute

Gustav Andersen had helped save over 7,500 Jews from Nazi-occupied Denmark but, over six decades later, an enemy falsely accuses him of war crimes. Gustav's daughter, Anna, is not in good health and her children are reeling from their own personal problems. Elsa, Gustav's granddaughter, is an associate art history professor at Harvard and is in charge of a painting suspected to have been looted by the Nazis during World War II. Erik, Gustav's grandson, is a disillusioned and bitter character with bizarre thoughts and conspiracy theories. While Gustav must face a formal war crimes inquiry in Copenhagen, his daughter and grandchildren join to support him. They all have to work together to help him prove his innocence. During this time, the horrors of what really happened, as well as a present deadly threat, are revealed. But through this, Gustav realizes that although the events were unfortunate and painful, he has nothing to be ashamed of. In fact, he accepts his role in the events as having been at the very least good, if not heroic. From this, Anna, who has also suffered for the past 60 years, finally comes to terms with her loss. Elsa, meanwhile, learns to assert herself against aggressive people who have been causing her hurt. Erik starts to process his pain by helping others. The story is an example of how hope and love can prevail in times of strife and suffering. Though evil may never be totally extinguished, love can at least overpower misery.
