Essex, 1916 Lily is a housemaid up at St Clere's Hall. But times
are changing with the outbreak of war. With a husband bent on
signing up for the trenches and a lecherous master of the house,
Lily is forced to leave. Doing her bit for the war effort - and
bringing in more money for the family - Lily goes to work in a
factory making explosives to send to the trenches. It's a hard job.
The munitionettes must face terrible working conditions, the
constant danger of accidents and air strikes and a patronising,
self-serving boss. And then someone she never wanted to see there
arrives. Lady Charlotte, the pampered daughter of the Hall, joins
the factory as a supervisor... Lily and Charlotte have choices they
never had before - but in the shadow of the Great War, can the
factory girls work together for a better future?
