Market Garden documentary

"Market Garden" is a documentary about a major World War II military operation in September 1944, led by Allied forces aiming to quickly end the war by capturing key bridges in the Netherlands. The plan was ambitious: airborne troops would seize crossings, allowing rapid advance into Germany. However, the operation faced unexpected German resistance, logistical challenges, and poor weather, leading to a costly failure. The documentary explores the strategic goals, key battles, and consequences of this daring but flawed plan, providing insights into the bravery, mistakes, and impact of one of the war’s most notable campaigns.
