The Battle of Oslo (Norwegian: Blücher) is a 2025 Norwegian historical–war thriller film directed by Daniel Fahre. The film is set during the Battle of Drøbak Sound, part of the German invasion of Norway in April 1940. It follows Colonel Birger Eriksen at Oscarsborg Fortress and the sinking of the German cruiser Blücher.
The film also depicts the Military Commission of Inquiry of 1946, led by Erik Solem, played by Terje Strømdahl, and naval member Per Askim, played by Jon Øigarden. It shifts between the intense events at Oscarsborg and the overlooked proceedings of 1946, where Eriksen is summoned to justify his actions before a military inquiry. It opened the 53rd Norwegian International Film Festival on 17 August 2025 and had its premiere in Main Programme.
It was released in Norwegian theaters on 26 September 2025.
