Apocalypse: D-Day

6 June 1944. A titanic fleet launched an assault on the beaches of Normandy. Objective: to liberate Europe from Hitler's yoke. Drawing on the lessons learned from the Dieppe raid in August 1942, the mission was a spectacular success.

Directed by Isabelle Clarke, Daniel Costelle, Apocalypse: D-Day leans on a strong ensemble — Mathieu Kassovitz, Dwight D. Eisenhower, Winston Churchill — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about documentary titles of 2024.
