Frisian film: 'De Fûke' (The Fishing Trap)

About two months ago I started a translation project for the Frisian movie 'De Fûke'. It is a story set during the second World War, where Germ, the son of fisherman and anti-hero Jelle, gets caught during a weapons drop meant for the Resistance. The next day the Germans and police collaborators show up to arrest Jelle for interrogation. Jelle, a stubborn Frisian (that's like a national trait for Frisians right there), has no mind for co-operation however.
"Leaver dea as slaef!" ("I'd rather be dead than a slave!") is a Frisian motto, and this movie shows it better than anything else I could show! :)

When I was done I put it on Youtube so other people can have a chance to watch it. I highly doubt any of you would otherwise ever get to see this haha. I hope you take the time to watch it, and enjoy it!
