Women At War (or Les Combattantes, if you prefer) is one of the Top 10 shows on Netflix in the UK right now. Here’s what you need to know about the French wartime drama.
Netflix’s All Quiet On The Western Front is the film on everybody’s mind at the moment. Edward Berger’s futile tale of World War I through the eyes of a 17-year-old German conscript has a *checks notes* whopping nine Oscar nominations, not to mention seriously strong odds of walking away with that all-important Best Picture gong.
There’s no denying, though, that it offers up an intensely male perspective of an important chapter in history. Some might say anmale perspective. And so I’m urging you to watch all eight episodes of the oh-so-bingeable French drama,. Right now, right this second. Because it is, I promise you, going to be the streaming platform’s Next Big Thing.The clue is very much in the name with this one.
Elsewhere, we have Agnes, Mother Superior of a requisitioned convent, and Suzanne, a fiercely feminist nurse.All of this means that, while there is obviously the usual period drama fare of romance and mystery to enjoy, Women At War also boasts storylines about wartime brothels, hastily-built military hospitals, sexual assaults, insidious abuse scandals, and illegal abortions.
