For the pilots of the 599th Night Bomber Regiment are women. In the deadly skies of the Eastern front, they will become a legend- known, to friend and foe alike, as the Night Witches.
"Based on the true story of Russia's women warriors, this hard-hitting tale pulls no punches in its depiction of warfare on the savage Eastern Front. When Communist and Nazi armies meet head on, innocence dies fast- and even the survivors will be scarred in ways they could never have imagined.
