It Was That Night
13-year old Claire hates being psychic. Instead of living a care free teenage life like other girls in her class, because of her 'gift' she is suddenly caught up in a chain of events that reach back to the German Occupation of Denmark. One memorable day in school, she sees a ghost who turns out to be a Jewish girl that did not escape with the others across the channel to Sweden in October 1943.
What started in 1943 now comes to completion in 1983, with a very reluctant Claire who only wishes for one thing: To be normal.
