1942 The war is gaining momentum, and the chaos around is becoming commonplace. The Cazalets are divided: some in London are under constant threat of air attacks, others are in Sussex, the family estate, where they are going through difficult times. Everyone is looking for strength to survive and trying to figure out their own lives - even during war, people fall in love, become disillusioned and search for themselves. Confusion engulfs each of the Cazalets. In such turbulent times, family support is especially urgently needed.
