Quite a long film in which the story is told through a long flashback of a group of nurses who are just on their way to Australia from the pacific war zone.
One of the women is in an a sort of coma state and we see her story and that of her colleagues through a long flashback.
The film is quite big with a few large crowded scenes and a kind of tribute to the nurses who signed up for active duty in the Pacific.
Of course it is all quite romanticized, but the characters are built up well and gradually you as a viewer start to sympathize with them.
This film was made during wartime, so it clearly has a kind of propaganda-like message, but that is not that disturbing.
