After her mother dies of the flu and her father is drafted, Sara a 14 year old religious Jew, is left alone to take care of her 9 year old sister in a war-torn French town on the western front. Forced to feign madness after abuse, she struggles to maintain her sanity and preserve the religious values of her sister while living above a cafe where ex-prostitutes entertain soldiers for their livelihood. She befriends a young British volunteer who is found barking like a dog on a train station bench. In her struggle to help him Sara meets a medic, and they try together to save lives and rise above the madness of the First World War, but the war will not let them. Thoroughly researched, Alone at War gives an authentic depiction of the horrors of the First World War. It is a hopeful and inspiring tribute to the power of the human spirit.
