Ann an raon a bha gu traidiseanta air a riaghladh le fireannaich, tha mnathan-brathaidh an Dàrna Cogaidh ag èirigh os cionn nam beachdan gu bheil iad nas laige, gu bhith am measg nan àidseantan as comasaiche sa chogadh – a’ fàgail dìleaban mhaireannach.

Tha Joey Guerrero, a bh’ air a cuir air leth, seach gun robh an luibhre oirre, a’ faighinn buannachd às an galar aice an uair a tha i tòiseachadh na bean-bhrathaidh an aghaidh muinntir Iapan; le tachartasan ag atharrachadh chùisean gu tur, tha Marie Madeleine-Fourcade air a fàgail gus aon de na lìonraidhean comhaireachd as motha agus as cudromaiche anns an Fhraing a stiùireadh; tha gaisgeachd Violette Szabo àlainn a’ ciallachadh deiridhean duilich ach dìleab phrìseil; anns an Fhraing a bha fo smachd, tha Pearl Witherington a’ seasamh suas agus i a’ dol na comandair air na mìltean; tha Julia Child a’ dèanamh obair iongantach na oifigear fàisneis mus robh i na cocaire ainmeil; b’ e Vera Eriksen aon de na mnathan-brathaidh as dìomhaire a bh’ anns a’ chogadh; agus tha gnìomh am boma atamach aig Àidseant Sonja a’ fosgladh linn ùr de dh’ obair-bhrathaidh le toiseachd tòiseachaidh a’ Chogaidh Fhuair. Anns an dòigh aca fhèin, tha gach boireannach a’ dearbhadh nach eil gnè a’ tighinn an lùib gaisgeachd, is iad a’ fàgail an comharra fhèin air saoghal nach bi an aon rud a chaoidh.

In an arena traditionally dominated by men, the female spies of WWII overcame perceived weaknesses to become some of the war’s most capable agents, leaving lasting legacies.

Joey Guerrero, long outcast as a leper, finds an unlikely advantage in her illness when she becomes an anti-Japanese spy. In a twist of fate, Marie Madeleine-Fourcade is left to lead one of France’s largest and most important resistance networks. Beautiful Violette Szabo’s bravery leads to a tragic ending but a treasured legacy.

In occupied France, Pearl Witherington steps up to the plate to become commander of thousands, and Julia Child cooks up her first breakthrough recipe as an intelligence officer.

Vera Eriksen becomes the war’s most mysterious spy, and Agent Sonya’s atom bomb operation opens a new age of espionage with the dawn of the Cold War.

In their own way, each woman proves that bravery has no gender as they leave their mark on a world that will never be the same.
