Driving on the Left is based on the true love story of two young people living in England in the 1940's. The war, and the events that took place both before and after, are seen through the eyes of Neil and Jeannie, both of whom join the armed forces and serve during the war. Neil finds himself on a troopship destined for distant lands, while Jeannie confronts the terror in the skies over England--both risking body and spirit to serve a greater cause and hoping to find each other again. They are passionately drawn together, only to find themselves separated by war and overwhelmed by circumstantial problems at the war's end. Facing both physical and emotional distance, their stress and challenges appear insurmountable. Only time will tell if they are able to build a lasting happiness together.
