    For people wanting to get a feel about what happened in The Netherlands in WWII and with the resistance, there are two movies that are quite good.

    The Forgotten Battle (2020) is about a few soldiers on their way to Arnhem, but their plane goes down over Zeeland. They get in contact with German soldiers and also with people from the resistance. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Forgotten_Battle

    Blackbook (2006) is about two young Dutch women who are friends. One is in bed with a German, the other is part of the resistance. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Black_Book_(film)
