In April 1940, the quiet waters of a remote Norwegian fjord became the site of one of the most significant naval disasters of the Second World War. This documentary explores the harrowing four-day period when ten of the most modern German destroyers sailed into a geographic trap from which none would return. While the initial invasion of Narvik appeared to be a swift success, a catastrophic failure in logistical planning left these formidable warships stranded without the fuel necessary to escape or maneuver effectively.
Witness the dramatic unfolding of the First and Second Battles of Narvik, where British naval forces capitalized on this vulnerability. We examine the critical decisions made by commanders on both sides, the overwhelming firepower of the battleship HMS Warspite, and the fierce engagements that resulted in the annihilation of a significant portion of the German destroyer fleet. From the sinking of ancient coastal defense ships to the final scuttling of trapped vessels, this is a story of strategic overconfidence, naval honor, and the high price of war in the North Atlantic.
