El Alamein, Egypte - oktober 1942. Het Britse Achtste Leger onder leiding van generaal Montgomery dwingt de As-mogendheden onder leiding van generaal Rommel om zich terug te trekken uit Egypte en Libië. Het is de eerste grote nederlaag van de Duitsers in de Tweede Wereldoorlog. De Italianen, bondgenoten van de Duitsers, zijn moedig, maar slecht bewapend. Ze behoren tot het kruim van het Italiaanse leger, maar leveren een verloren strijd voor een bondgenoot die hen minachtend behandelt. Na elf dagen van verschrikkelijke gevechten zijn er 25000 doden en 30000 krijgsgevangenen. De film volgt het leven van de frontsoldaten. Een verhaal van mannen die probeerden te overleven op een rantsoen van een half glas vervuild water - terwijl ze vochten tegen de dysenterie. Van mannen die hun land verdedigden ver van huis. Van kleine naamloze helden die stierven in het vergeten zand van de Egyptische woestijn.
Nee, helaas is El Alamein - La linea del fuoco nog niet beschikbaar op Netflix in Nederland.
