Short WW II documentary
Get set to journey to Malta, a place where the ancient and modern world come together at work and at play. Consisting of three small islands, where beauty abounds - in life, song and scenery - its history is as deep as its natural riches, all waiting to be revealed.
This historical documentary addresses a subject typically given short shrift in discussions of World War II: the role of Malta in pivotal Second World War battles. The program argues that because of the island's key location - sandwiched, as it is, in-between Southern Europe and Northern Africa - it inevitably impeded Axis and Allied reinforcement deliveries time and again. As a result, the Maltese people found themselves caught in the middle of a crossfire when they had virtually nothing to do with the war itself, and suffered immensely for their geographic placement. In telling this seldom-heard story, the program draws on first-person interviews, CGI animations, and dramatic recreations.

The stories unravel in parallel and culminate tragically when the fishermen are traced down, but by that time there's only one survivor.
