"Arriving in Egypt to serve in World War I, a group of idealistic young Australian and New Zealand nurses are full of romantic notions. All too soon, however, they are faced with convoys of the dead and wounded from the doomed Gallipoli campaign. Realizing that war is not quite the “splendid adventure” they thought it would be, they rise to the challenge, finding love, heartbreak, and lasting friendship along the way. Based on the book The Other ANZACS by Peter Rees, and drawing on the original diaries, letters and photographs that passed between the nurses and their lovers, families and friends, as well as on countless historical records, the miniseries is one of the first to be told from the points of view of five unsung heroines from the Australia New Zealand Army Corps (ANZAC). A “beautifully shot, multilayered drama” (The Sunday Telegraph), it “brings these little-known stories vividly to life” (The Daily Telegraph)."--Container.
