Episodes of World on Fire
World on Fire scores heavily is its honest portrayal of the cost of war: the end of regular life, normal worries, everyday cares, possibly forever.
One is willing to forgive the fudging of time frames for dramatic purposes and the general prettifying of the frames mainly because World on Fire has its heart in the right place.
3.5/5
World on Fire is not about World War II itself, but the consequences faced by ordinary people who survived the blitzkriegs.
