The sky over Normandy

A gripping film based on the real, previously untold scenes of the Allied landing in Normandy in 1944. Skies over Normandy is a story of responsibility and how one man can influence the course of history.

Starring: master of complex roles, charismatic Andrew Scott (Good Strangers), Oscar winner Brendan Fraser (The Whale), Emmy and Golden Globe winner Damian Lewis (Homeland) and all-rounder Kerry Condon (F1). Behind the camera was Anthony Maras, director of the gripping thriller, based on the facts of the Mumbai Hotel.

72 hours before landing in Normandy, the fate of the world will depend on... the weather. War is not just battles, it is in particular strategies and decisions, the consequences of which can be felt by millions. British Army meteorologist James Stagg (Andrew Scott) must make the most important decision of his career — the forecast he makes could determine the success or failure of the largest military operation in history. Locked in an atmosphere of distrust and pressure from top commanders, Stagg fights a psychological battle against time, supported only by Captain Kay Summersby (Kerry Condon). It's up to General Dwight D. Eisenhower (Brendan Fraser), who must decide whether to proceed with the invasion or delay it — at the risk of Germany discovering the plans of the Allies.

In the tense 72 hours before D-Day, and with the fate of the free world hanging in the balance, the film follows General Dwight D. Eisenhower and Captain James Stagg as they face an impossible choice—launch the largest and most dangerous seaborne invasion in history or risk losing the war altogether.
