War Stories, set in World War II New York City, is the story of Ruth, a young musician from a working class immigrant family who has come to the city to pursue personal freedom and political relevance.

Exploring the world through labor politics, through music, and through relationships, she is deeply committed to supporting the good war. Her views are challenged by Nat, who comes from a wealthy industrial Jewish family and sees all war as capitalist and corrupt.

War Stories embeds their personal struggles within the context of those of workers and conscientious objectors, against a backdrop of anti-Semitism, and awash in the music of the time period.
