Description
In the face of war, loyalty and love are tested in this poignant drama. Set against the backdrop of Normandy in the 1940s, the story follows Lucette as she navigates her feelings for a young friend of her husband's, active in the Resistance. As the German Occupation tightens its grip on everyday life, relationships are drawn into the theatre of war, and lives are imperilled. As the tide of war turns with the advent of D-day, families and friends face impossible choices. Will they be able to reconcile their conflicting loyalties and love for one another once the turbulence of war subsides? This powerful story, inspired by true life stories of a community under occupation, explores the human cost of war and the enduring power of love. With its thoughtful portrayal of a community torn apart by conflict, "Quietly Occupied" is a moving and thought-provoking read.
