WW2 Women at War

True stories of the women who fought, spied, flew and survived in the Second World War.

WW2 Women at War is a documentary channel about courage under impossible odds. Each film follows one woman, or one group of women, through her war: SOE agents dropped behind enemy lines, resistance fighters who led networks of thousands, snipers on the Eastern Front, combat pilots, nurses held as prisoners, and the codebreakers whose work turned battles.

Every story is real and carefully researched, told in long-form documentaries of 45 to 50 minutes. We cover every side and every nation: British, American, Soviet, French, Polish, Dutch, German and more. The tone is somber and respectful. These women faced the same dangers as any soldier, and their stories deserve the same weight.
