What is Allies about?

On 6 June 1944, Allied forces launch the largest invasion in history to liberate Europe from Nazi control. Across the beaches of Normandy and the French countryside, a group of young people each faces danger in a different way: a US soldier prepares to storm the shore, a French girl works with the resistance, and others fight from tanks, planes and secret networks. Their stories unfold side by side, revealing the courage, sacrifice and teamwork needed to change the course of the war.
