Cornelia shows the last minutes of the life of a Dutch female resistance fighter while she is being lead to the place of her execution. She asks herself: how did it come this far? Did I make the right choices?
Cornelia tells the story of Cornelia Johanna van den Berg-van der Vlis, the only woman between 290 men on the Frisian Resistance monument in the North of The Netherlands. Who was she? Why were the Germans so desperate to catch her? And how did their hunt end? We hear glimpses of it while Cornelia is being transported by a firing squad towards the place of her execution.—Sander Blom
