| World on Fire is a heart-stopping, multi-stranded drama telling the story of World War II through the lives of ordinary people from all sides of this global conflict. The first series draws viewers gradually into the creeping horror of the outbreak of the war during its first year. It traces the intertwining fates of relatable, vividly drawn characters from Britain, Poland, France, Germany and the United States as they grapple with the effect of the war on their everyday lives. Delivering a never-before-seen perspective on the early days of war, this adrenalized, emotionally gripping and globally resonant drama explores the human stories hidden within one of the most pivotal and seismic moments in twentieth-century history. |
