Malta Story Page #8

Synopsis: In 1942 Britain was clinging to the island of Malta since it was critical to keeping Allied supply lines open. The Axis also wanted it for their own supply lines. Plenty of realistic reenactments and archival combat footage as the British are beseiged and try to fight off the Luftwaffe. Against this background, a RAF reconnaissance photographer's romance with a local girl is endangered as he tries to plot enemy movements.

GOVERNOR:
We have seen hardship

and we have seen triumph.

We shall see more of both.

If history remembers us,

let it say that we stood fast in faith,

giving freely what little we had

and what little we were.

Never doubting that we spent

ourselves for the general good.

Boris J.
