Overview

Richthofen goes off to war like thousands of other men. As fighter pilots, they become cult heroes for the soldiers on the battlefields. Marked by sportsmanlike conduct, technical exactitude and knightly propriety, they have their own code of honour. Before long he begins to understand that his hero status is deceptive. His love for Kate, a nurse, opens his eyes to the brutality of war.

A sweeping WWI drama that follows a legendary fighter pilot's disillusionment as he grapples with the gulf between heroic myth and brutal reality. Graceful aerial sequences are tempered by an intimate portrait of a man discovering that glory and conscience cannot coexist in war.
