The Nightingale
In love, we find who we want to be. In war, we find who we are.
France, 1939
In the village of Carriveau, Vianne Mauriac bids farewell to her husband, Antoine, as he heads to the Front. She doesn't believe the Nazis will invade France, but they do, forcing Vianne and her daughter to live with a German captain in their home. With no food, money, or hope, Vianne must make impossible choices to keep her family alive.
Her rebellious 18-year-old sister, Isabelle, searches for purpose. After falling in love with a partisan who later betrays her, Isabelle joins the Resistance, risking her life repeatedly to save others.
