Johannas Töchter Klara und Mia sind zu jungen Frauen herangewachsen. Die Schwestern sind unzertrennlich und doch unterschiedlich wie Tag und Nacht: Während die jüngere Mia mit ihren dunkelbraunen Haaren alle Blicke auf sich zieht und die Menschen mit ihrer ungezwungenen Art für sich einnimmt, hat Klara das rotblonde Haar ihrer Mutter geerbt, ist nachdenklich und in sich gekehrt.

Story
D-Day. June 6th, 1944. The trajectory of the Second World War – and with it the course of modern history – is changed forever. For three young former schoolmates from South Wales, their war is only just beginning. These young men, and thousands of others, will soon be a part of one of the bloodiest and most brutal parts of the Normandy campaign: the battle for Hill 112. The horror, the fear, the filth; the savage fighting; the sheer exhilaration and moments of farce and laughter: those who come through the carnage will never be the same again.
