Description

Sergeant Michael Dunne has survived some of the worst fighting of the Great War. Wounded and struggling with neurasthenia, he returns home to Calgary, facing trial as a deserter if he attempts to return to battle. There, he finds himself entangled in a complicated love affair with Sarah Mann, a nurse dismissed from her position due to her German ancestry. As they navigate their feelings for each other, Michael is also drawn into caring for Sarah's chronically ill brother, David, who enlists in the war despite being on a medical certificate that allows him to rest. In November 1917, Michael and his comrades are about to embark on the infamous Battle of Passchendaele. Based on an epic Canadian motion picture, this story immortalizes the horrors and triumphs of one of the most pivotal battles of the First World War.
