Summary

WARNING: This episode contains spoilers for episode 3 of World on Fire Season 2.

For director Meenu Gaur, it’s important to bring a new perspective to the stories and genres that have been around for decades. And that’s what drew her to World on Fire. In this interview, Gaur discusses how she balanced the big, dramatic moments of battle with the small, tender moments of love, longing, and domesticity.


Stay tuned after the interview for real WWII historical commentary from World on Fire historical advisor Richard Overy.
