Wiki.

I slik en natt (On a Night Like This) is a Norwegian war film from 1958 directed by Sigval Maartmann-Moe. It stars Anne-Lise Tangstad. The music was composed by Øivin Fjeldstad.

The title I slik en natt is taken from Henrik Wergeland's poem "Juleaftenen" (Christmas Eve) in his poetry collection Jøden (The Jew), and the film deals with the Gestapo's search for a group of Jewish children in Oslo and bold action to bring the children to safety.
