The historical fiction telling of 5 women who are recruited to parachute into France a week before the Normandie allied beach landing. Their task is to rescue a geologist who was captured in Normandie and who would give up the entire invasion plan. A cat and mouse war film that is a fascinating and thrilling story, but also horrific as it reminds us of the brutality of people (both individuals and systems). The film captures well a lot of the nuance of gender bias, personal motivations of the characters, and just the machine of war.
