The War

Invited

Join Ken Burns for a special work-in-progress screening of Episode Five from his newest film series, The War. Comprised of seven episodes, The War follows the bottom-up story of four American towns and their sons who descended into the hell that some believe to have been the greatest cataclysm in history—the Second World War. Episode Five covers the fall of 1944, when, in the months after D-Day, everyone thought the war would be over by Christmas. It wouldn’t be.
