On a dark night at the height of World War Two, thousands of ships charge across the ocean towards the French coast.

On board one of the hospital ships, disguised as a nurse, is Martha Gellhorn. A seasoned war correspondent, she talked her way onboard, hiding in a lavatory until it was too late to send her back.
