When We Go To War

Episodes(6)

This landmark drama recounts the impact of World War I on families in New Zealand. The story cuts between life at home and the fronts of Gallipoli and Egypt. It begins in a time of optimism and hope, even as the world prepares for war. With one of the highest living standards in the world, New Zealand is part of the British Empire. As the battlefield beckons, few can foresee the horrors to come.
