When “the lamps go out across all of Europe,” a shadow thickens over millions of people…
Lady Elizabeth dreams of freedom: to see the world, live by her own rules, and marry for love. Refusing to obey the expectations of her family, she decides to run away, hoping to find her place and be useful to people. But World War I shatters the usual course of life and changes the destinies of millions.
By rejecting her old name, she becomes simply Lilli and finds herself on the front line, where she helps transport wounded soldiers to field infirmaries. Around her are uncertainty, anxiety, and separation from loved ones whose fates are unknown. Yet even in this darkness, Lilli tries to preserve faith and find her light.
