Academy Award winner Jeremy Irons and Golden Globe nominee Sam Neill narrate this account of the historical battle. It began as a demonstration against the Ottoman Empire by Great Britain and her allies. Nine months later it had become one of the fiercest and most controversial battles of the First World War.

Produced over six years and in seven different countries, Gallipoli is the story of ordinary men forced by history to do extraordinary things.

Newly uncovered diaries, letters and photographs; interviews with international experts; on-location landscape, underwater and aerial photography; 3-D computer animations; and dramatic battle re-enactments make this docu-drama not only the newest film on the subject but also the most comprehensive.
