Synopsis
Sisters united: Surviving and resisting Nazi occupation in WWII France
Isabelle and Vianne, two sisters, are faced with the challenge of surviving and resisting the Nazi occupation in France. Vianne, the elder sister, resides in a village where she must shield her daughter from German soldiers who have infiltrated rural regions strategically. On the other hand, Isabelle, the younger sibling, resides in the city and fearlessly puts her life at stake as she fights for the Resistance. Against the backdrop of World War II, each woman embarks on a distinct struggle, demonstrating their resilience and unwavering dedication to their respective causes. Despite the pervasive danger posed by the occupying German forces, both sisters find themselves making harrowing choices in order to safeguard their cherished possessions.
