In post-World War II Denmark, Land of Mine tells a powerful and gripping story based on true events. Set in 1945, the film follows a group of young German POWs who are forced to clear a beach of thousands of land mines as a punishment for their country's occupation of Denmark. Under the watchful eye of Danish Sergeant Carl Rasmussen, the POWs are subjected to dangerous and harrowing conditions.

As the story unfolds, Rasmussen begins to develop an unexpected empathy for the young prisoners, slowly realizing the true extent of their plight. This shift in perspective leads to a thought-provoking exploration of humanity and the consequences of war.
