Sommerbarna

“They came from distress and poverty to reconcile in Europe.”

Filmmaker Linn Helene Løken's unknown mother's story and the program she was a part of. In the summer of 1957, four-year-old Gaby came from West Berlin to Sandefjord, where she was to spend the summer with an unknown family. Gaby was one of around 70,000 German children sent to Norway and Sweden in the post-war period, as part of an attempt to create reconciliation in a continent that was still strongly affected by the worst war in human history. But even if the intention was good, the stays in Norway were not exclusively positive for the German children.
