They were the best of enemies dedicated, skilled and deadly. In the night skies above wartime Germany an RAF navigator-bomber from New Zealand and a Luftwaffe pilot seek out their targets, testing the gap between success and their own destruction as they cross each others paths. The odds are heavily against either of them making it through the war, but as this sobering realisation displaces their initial exuberant adventurism, both come to see in their youthful sacrifice the survival of all they hold dear. Under a Bombers Moon reaches across the divide of years, of geography, of nationality to tell their story largely in their own words describing both the breathtaking clashes in the air and the camaraderie, humour, patriotism and personal tragedies that became their war.
