This film traces the journeys of four French women during World War II. Now aged 90 and over, they recount in vivid detail and with incredible dignity how they survived from 1939 until liberation, sharing intimate testimonies in which their own stories intertwine with the greater narrative. Four women's destinies (a member of the Resistance, a survivor of the Ravensbrück and Bergen-Belsen camps, the daughter of museum curators, the daughter of a soldier) who lived through the war with courage and self-sacrifice.
