CARVE HER NAME WITH PRIDE is based on the heroic true story of Violette Szabo. Violette, fluent in French, volunteered to parachute into France to work as a secret agent alongside the French Resistance during World War II. After being captured by the Germans she refused to reveal the identities of her comrades to the Gestapo despite being tortured. Szabo, portrayed here by Virginia McKenna, was subsequently deported to a concentration camp and eventually executed.
