The film follows General Eisenhower (Oscar winner Brendan Fraser) and British meteorologist James Stagg (Andrew Scott), who face an almost impossible decision: launch the biggest invasion in history or postpone it and risk losing the war. In a world without modern technology, their weather assessment becomes the decisive factor that will determine the fate of millions. In the 72 hours before D-Day everything is ready except one key element – the British weather. The wrong weather conditions could destroy the largest naval invasion ever, while every delay carries the risk that German intelligence will discover the plans.
