A Chequer Board Of Nights
2014, 15 minutes
A Chequer-Board Of Nights is based on the true accounts of one pilot's trips to and from Germany in Lancaster Bombers during WWII.
Bill McCrea is a young, Irish Pilot risking his life to fight for his country in Bomber Command. He and his crew have already been on several bombing raids to Germany but it doesn't get any easier as time goes on. In this time of destruction and war, each trip brings a new sense of fear to the young crew but they can't let their emotions get in the way of their mission. One man's mistake could cost the lives of the rest of his crew and even the lives of other allies.
