Patriots (German: Patrioten) is a 1937 German film directed by Karl Ritter.
The story of the film takes place during World War II in Norway, focusing on the heroes of the resistance movement who undertake dangerous missions behind enemy lines to combat the Nazi German occupation.
The protagonist of the story is a young man named Oscar. Initially, he is just an ordinary citizen, but after witnessing his homeland being occupied and his compatriots oppressed, he decides to join the resistance movement. During this process, Oscar meets other like-minded resistance fighters and gradually grows into a brave warrior through training. The tasks of the resistance organization include gathering intelligence, sabotaging enemy facilities, and rescuing captured comrades. As Oscar and his team carry out their missions, they face tremendous dangers and difficulties. They have to contend not only with the well-equipped and well-trained German forces but also with internal betrayal and the threat of spies.
In one critical mission, Oscar and his team are sent to destroy a bridge that is crucial to the Germans. This bridge is an important route for the enemy's supply and troop transportation. Successfully destroying it would significantly weaken the German presence in Norway. During the planning and execution of the mission, they need to use wisdom, courage, and teamwork to overcome numerous obstacles. Ultimately, in a fierce battle, Oscar and his team manage to destroy the bridge. Despite the heavy price they pay, their actions severely demoralize the enemy and boost the confidence of the resistance movement.[1][2][3]
