What happens

Venus fra Vestø (literally, Venus from West Island) is a 1962 Danish comedy war film directed by Annelise Reenberg and starring Malene Schwartz. The film is based on Jerrard Tickell's 1951 novel Appointment with Venus (Danish title: Operation Venus), but re-set on a Danish island rather than a fictional island in the Channel Islands archipelago.
