Women at War

In the heart of World War I, three women from different backgrounds find their lives irrevocably changed by the conflict. A young American nurse, a seasoned French resistance fighter, and a determined British suffragette each grapple with the immense sacrifices and profound impact of war on their lives and the world around them. Their intertwined stories explore themes of courage, resilience, and the often-overlooked contributions of women during wartime.
