TESTAMENT OF YOUTH is a searing story of love, war and remembrance. Based on Vera Brittain’s classic First World War memoir, this is the powerful true story of one young woman’s struggle to survive the horrors of war – a war which robbed her of everything and everyone she held dear, but was ultimately unable to break her spirit.
TESTAMENT OF YOUTH will be released in cinemas across the UK and Ireland on 16 January 2015.
