Burning wooden houses and a dead person in the rubble

Flames and smoke pour from the gaping windows of wooden buildings burning down to their frames; smoke drifts low over scorched ground and a crater; among splintered boards and rubble at the foot of a wall lies a dead person, the body dark with soot, a patterned cloth beside it. Apparently Norway, spring 1940; who the dead person is and where the scene was filmed is not recorded.
