This film tells the story of a highly intelligent woman determined to make it to Oxford and fulfill her dreams of making something of her life, in a time when women have to fight for equal rights and opportunities. Along the way she meets and falls in love with a friend of her brother. When war is declared their lives are torn apart, with tragic consequences. An excellent film based on a true story, this is a must see for the lasting legacy WW1 had on the people who lived through it. I guarantee you will need a box of tissues at the ready!

Having recently read "Testament of Youth" we just had to see the film version. Really excellent interpretation of the WW1 years - now please can we have a follow-up film of Vera Brittain's recovery from the trauma of war and her political career. Such a remarkable woman is worthy of two films at least.

A very good autobiography detailing how Vera Brittain and her friends and family were affected by the events of the First World War and how their lives were completely devastated by it. Not always an easy read but compelling nonetheless.A truly excellent book.
