An unflinching documentary that tells the story of the historic battle through the dramatic recollections of those caught up in the action. The series gives a 360-degree view of the invasion, from a British sailor who laid underwater charges that would blow up German defenses, to Canadians, Americans, French resistance fighters, and German defenders. Moving interviews are combined with newly discovered footage and dramatic reconstructions that plunge viewers into the heat of battle.
