WORLD WAR I, 1914 - 1918 (GENERAL)

PREMIÈRE GUERRE MONDIALE, 1914 - 1918 (GÉNÉRAL)

DVD - FRONT LINES / ENTRE LES LIGNES

DVD - FRONT LINES / ENTRE LES LIGNES (33 Minutes, 51 seconds) A tribute to the combatants in the First World War, this film traces the conflict through the war diary and private letters of five Canadian soldiers and a nurse. Hearing them, the listener detects between the lines an unspoken horror censored by war and propriety. The film mingles war footage, historical photos and readings of excerpts from the diary and letters. The directorial talent of Claude Guilmain breathes life into these 90-year-old documents and accompanying archival images so that we experience the human face and heart of the conflict. For the educational sector, five documentary vignettes have been drawn from the film: Nurses at the Front, The Officer's Role, The Life of the Soldier, Faith and Hope and The Trenches, each with further information on its particular subject.
