What happens

Nilfisk- og Nimbusfabrikkerne som Skole er en film med ukendt instruktør. Hen mod krigens afslutning i april 1945 vælter flygtninge ind over de danske grænser og indlogeres på skoler, bl.a. Søndermarksskolen. Derfor stiller Nilfisk- og Nimbusfabrikkerne på Peter Bangsvej 30 lokaler til rådighed for Folkeskolen. Vi er både med til undervisning og på legepladsen sammen med børnene. Så lyder luftalarmen og børnene må i kælderen. Til slut billeder fra befrielsen 5. maj 1945. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
