About

Using diaries, letters, photographs and memoirs, acclaimed director, Tolga Ornek, traces the personal journeys of Australian, New Zealand, British and Turkish soldiers, from innocence and patriotism to hardship and heartbreak.

Jeremy Irons provides a hauntingly intimate narration that breathes life into the private letters and dusty photographs of fallen soldiers. This collage of personal memoirs transforms a massive military catastrophe into a collection of fragile, human heartbeats.
