Description
A poignant tale of love and loss in the aftermath of World War Two. In 1945, an idealistic young couple sets out to work in Europe, driven by their desire to help those displaced by conflict and fascism. As they navigate the challenges of volunteering for a UN agency, Edmund and Eleanor struggle to reconcile their differing views on how to rebuild lives. Meanwhile, Eleanor harbours a secret that threatens to disrupt their marriage. Against the backdrop of a Europe at a crossroads, this is a heart-wrenching story of love, loss and hope. From Britain to France, Germany, Poland and beyond, The Displaced is a powerful exploration of the human cost of war and the complexities of relationships in times of crisis.
