In May 1944, a group of French servicewomen
and resistance fighters are enlisted into the British Special
Operations Executive commando group under the command of Louise
Desfontaines and her brother Pierre. Their mission, to rescue a British
army geologist caught reconnoitering the beaches at Normandy, and to
kill a German SS colonel who is close to figuring out the imminent
secret of D-Day, proves to be emotional and brutal. The story is
inspired by the accomplishments of decorated SOE agent Lisé
de Baissac.
