Pozières is a tiny and unremarkable village in Northern France. In 1916, during the Great War, Pozières becomes the site for an insane battle. The village is stormed and captured by Australians. In less than seven weeks, they will suffer twenty three thousand casualties for this tiny patch of earth. This film takes the viewer back in time. The camera finds young men in the fields and trenches of France, railway carriages in Egypt, and the beautiful Australian bush. We meet their families in the parlours of small cottages and rowdy public meetings in Australia. Everyone is touched in some way by this tiny village, and eighty four years later, we go back to Pozières to find out... Was it all worth anything ?
