Official Synopsis: In the 72 hours leading up to the D-Day landings, the fate of the free world hangs in the balance. "Pressure" tells the story of General Dwight D. Eisenhower and Captain James Stagg as they face an impossible choice: launch the largest and most perilous naval invasion in history, or risk losing the war entirely.
