Vera has her whole life ahead of her in early 1914. She defies her conservative parents and studies at Oxford. But her dreams are shattered by the outbreak of WWI. Her brother and friends all enlist. So Vera sacrifices her education to become a nurse, falling in love as war engulfs their generation.
Based on Vera Brittain’s classic memoir, James Kent’s heartfelt drama piercingly articulates the agony of war on both a collective and a personal scale. Alicia Vikander is extraordinarily moving as a young woman courageously facing the horrors of bloodshed and the gendered prejudices of her time.
