For Churchill and his ally President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, it was time to free Europe by organizing the largest seaborne military operation in the history of mankind. 70 years after « Operation Overlord » took place, it remains one of the most heroic battle ever.

The battle first raged on the coast of Normandy. 1.5 million men and women took part to it. The film takes a closer look at the backstage of the entire set-up of the operation. Some crucial facts on logistics, some incredible secret decisions made by leaders, the involvement of top-ranking officers as well as surprising secret agents all led to the success of the operation.
