History Channel : Unforgotten Soldiers

Written by

DDB Auckland

Directed by

The Glue Society

Produced by

Revolver

With no surviving veterans WWI is becoming a distant memory. For the 100th anniversary of Gallipoli, the History Channel wanted to keep the memory alive.

The Unforgotten Soldiers was a tableau vivant installation that brought an old black and white World War One picture to life on the streets of Auckland. Entirely - and surprisingly - in black and white.

The 8-hour performance brought to life a typical day in a full-scale trench and was based on real NZ soldiers and their real stories. And from authentic army uniforms, weapons, food rations and trench essentials everything looked just as it was 100 years ago.
