- Synopsis:
- A landowner's daughter, drawn to nursing by her strong faith, travels to Turkey to care for British soldiers wounded in the Crimea. Appalled by the squalid conditions that are claiming more lives than the fighting itself, she devotes her energies to the drive to improve care and sanitation. As a woman in the mid-nineteenth century, it is not the only battle she will face - but her tireless campaign of reform will lay the foundation for modern nursing, and make her a national icon.

Entertaining period drama - The Lady with a Lamp review by MR
An excellent rendition of the legendary Florence Nightingale. Based on the Reginald Berkeley stage play, this film is suited to our troubling times of pandemic and public health concerns. The dialogue is totally engaging and Neagle's and Widing's performances are superb. Highly recommended.
