This year, as countless thousands of refugees are uprooted from their homes and communities by armed conflict, we consider one of the greatest humanitarian movements to emerge from the Great War – an international effort to aid the Armenian people. What has come to be known as the Armenian genocide began in April 1915 within hours of Anzac forces landing at the Dardanelles.

This documentary, marking the 110th anniversary of the Gallipoli campaign, pays tribute to the role Australian soldiers played in protecting innocent civilians. It reveals the moving story of a mother who lost her son at Anzac and dedicated her life to helping refugees and promoting world peace.
