Film exploring what really happened on Omaha Beach, where over 2,000 men lost their lives during D-Day, and how it could have been very different.

D-Day was the most decisive battle of the Second World War, yet things went badly wrong on Omaha Beach, and over 2,000 men lost their lives. It could have been very different if a secret weapon designed especially for the invasion had made it to the beach.
