This political thriller is a behind-the-scenes look at D-Day, the largest human invasion in history. An adaptation of David Haig’s stage play, Pressure is set during the intense 72 hours before the invasion, focusing on the strategy, decisions, and the pivotal moments leading up. The story centers on General Dwight D. Eisenhower, played by Brendan Fraser, and Royal Air Force meteorologist James Stagg, portrayed by Andrew Scott, whose weather forecast will decide whether the critical operation in France has any chance of success.
