A romance between a British pilot hiding in Germany and a German nurse is shown on the background of massive allied bombing of Dresden towards the end of World War II. This drama has high-impact and keeps you interested all the way through. Don't be fooled by the above bombing scene as the story is much more than that. It is an excellent drama and depicts a fantastic performance by actress Felicitas Woll who plays the german nurse, Anna.
Part 1 of this two-part miniseries drew the largest audience for a German miniseries in history on a Sunday night as 12.7 million viewers tuned in. News reports suggested that an even larger audience may have tuned in Monday night. The film, set during the 1945 Allied bombing that flattened the city and killed 35,000 people, is the most expensive ever produced for German television, costing $13.2 million. It attracted 39 percent of the 14-49-year-old viewers. It is reportedly the first to treat the World War II event as drama, focusing on a fictional romance between an RAF pilot shot down during the bombing and a German nurse.
