A blind teenager in France (played by Ana Mia Loberti, who is visually impaired) and a German soldier (Louis Hofmann), shared inspiration from a shortwave radio show in their youth. During World War II, she broadcasts messages of hope (and military secrets) via that same radio. Meanwhile, he’s been conscripted by the Nazis to track her down. While this series (4 one-hour eps) looks impressive enough, the filmmaking is pretty bland. The narrative doesn’t build much momentum, because there are constant flashbacks adding backstory. Likewise, there so many disparate narrative elements that it’s hard to get involved. The actors do fine and the final scenes provide some payoff, but even then, there are no surprises. This film has all the elements of a major war drama, but they don’t come together with much emotional impact.
