Betrayed

Charles Braude, played by award-winning actor Jakob Oftebro, is living happily with his older siblings and parents in Oslo. He is making a name for himself as a boxing champion, when the German invasion of Norway begins and his idyllic family life dramatically changes. He, his father, and brothers are sent to an internment camp. Separated from the rest of the family, they are only left with hope. But on the night of November 26, 1942, Charles and hundreds of other frightened Jews are forced to board the German cargo ship “SS DONAU", unaware that the ship’s final destination is Auschwitz. Betrayed tells the bitter truth of the deportation and murder of millions of Jews during World War II. With painful details, director Eirik Svensson (Harajuku) has created an impressive historical drama with the true story of the Jewish Braude family, a family whose fate is destined by the simple fact that they are Jewish.
