Normandy, June 6, 1944! The world assists to a tragic event that has deeply marked the humankind. Writers, journalists, war correspondents tell us about the huge landing of troops coming from all over the world. One of them is Robert Capa who, facing the metal storm of the first assault wave to Omaha Beach, managed to capture photos that have become famous. Beyond fears, pains and death, freedom takes back its rights like a rainbow over the wooded countryside.
