Normandy june 44
The 6th June 1944 is approaching.
In Europe, a young German and a young American are writing to their mother, at home. Each one of them is preparing in their way to go through tragic events.
Jürgen, who is living with a Norman family, understands that the increasing amount of reconnaissance flights and of bombardments announces an imminent landing. The famous landing in Pas-de-Calais !
As for Lewis, he is sharing the everyday life of an English family. He apprehends his parachuting and the future battles against an enemy he thinks he knows as his family comes from Germany.
If it would have been a different timing, a different place, Jürgen and Lewis could have been friends. But on this 6th June 1944, the colour of a uniform separates them.
