"This is the imaginative recreation of a German occupation of Britain following the invasion of July 1940. Pauline Murray, an Irish girl working in England, joins up in 1944 with the re-emerging Resistance. On a 7,000 pound budget the filmmakers' recreated a newsreel style but did not use stock or newsreel footage, a direct reaction to fifties war movies which they felt never dealt with the nature of Nazism. A controversial sequence showed real British Nazis expressing their beliefs."@en
""This is Brownlow and Mollo's remarkable story of occupation and collaboration in Nazi-controlled England. Their rewrite of history is all the more convincing for having the appearance of absolute authenticity....brilliantly edited, it gives an authentic feel of how things might have been in occupied England, had the Nazis invaded. At the heart of the film's central story of a district nurse trying to practise her profession is the dilemma that if you don't take sides in wartime, you are seen to collaborate" -- Container."

"Dos historiadors, Andrew Mollo i Kevin Brownlow, produeixen, amb un baix pressupost (uns 20 mil dòlars), en 10 anys, una inusual pel·lícula fantàstica sobre què hagués passat si els alemanys haguessin envaït i ocupat Anglaterra durant la 2a. Guerra Mundial, en format de fals documental."
"La jaquette indique : "Juin 1940, les Allemands envahissent l'Angleterre après la retraite des Anglais à Dunkerque. Pauline, fuyant son petit village, arrive à Londres. Elle rejoint l'armée d'occupation en tant qu'infirmière. Sa collaboration avec l'ennemi nazi va progressivement lui devenir insupportable.""
