In 1946 a beautiful writer researches in Guernsey on the adventures of the islanders with still fresh memories of occupation by the Germans in WWII.
Slushy historical romance, rather obviously making its plot points, with occasional darker moments of interest when revealing the aspect of German occupation and its secrets, with generally excellent performances.
