Messages Home: British Army's Lost Films (2016)

Recently rediscovered Second World War footage reveals frontline British soldiers fighting in Burma recording video messages to their loved ones back home. These heart-warming films were discovered in old film canisters in a Manchester basement and offer a glimpse into the lives of these courageous servicemen as they endured long periods of separation from their homes while serving in the Far East. For the first time in 70 years, the North West Film Archive set out on a mission to track down the veterans and their families featured in the Calling Blighty messages and invited them to a special screening of the films.
