In three lectures, Sara Fredfeldt Stadager and Signe Bergman Larsen tell the story of the liberation of Denmark and the return of refugees from Sweden. The joy expressed at the great news of the end of the liberation of the country, but also the return with the strange challenge of combining awareness of this history, so painful and so close, with the need to return to everyday life. This was the case for 18,000 Danish refugees in Sweden, 8,000 of whom had fled in 1943 because of the persecution of Jews by the Nazis.
