Trama
Mentre il marito Tim è via durante la seconda guerra mondiale, Anne Hilton affronta problemi sul fronte interno, la famiglia. Accoglie un inquilino, il colonnello Smollett, per riuscire a sbarcare il lunario e far fronte alla carenza e al razionamento, ma questi sono piccoli inconvenienti rispetto ai problemi che creeranno la condotta amorosa della figlia Jane e del nipote del colonnello. Il destino segnerà profondamente la famiglia Hilton, ma Anne continuerà a rappresentare per tutti un esempio di coraggio, volontà e dedizione.
Questa è la storia di una invincibile fortezza: la casa americana
