Alicia Vikander and Kit Harrington (Game of Thrones) star in this powerful romance, based on the acclaimed WWI memoir.
Based on the acclaimed WWI memoir, this powerful romance has become the classic testimony of that war from a woman’s point of view. After falling in love with a young soldier (Kit Harington, Game of Thrones), tenacious proto-feminist Vera Brittain (Alicia Vikander) sacrifices her chance at Oxford to enlist as a nurse. Her searing journey from innocence to the edge of despair and back illustrates how one makes sense of the darkest times. “A heart-wrenching sucker punch of emotion” (The Guardian). D: James Kent, UK, 2015, 129m
