  • "Records the memories of 12 surviving Canadian women concerning their roll in World War I."
  • "This film presents a unique record of Canada's "other veterans". Twelve Canadian women, aged between 86 and 101, recall their entry into what had formerly been a "man's world" of munitions factories and farm labour. As nurses and ambulance drivers they even came dangerously close to the battlefields. Seldom seen archival film and still photographs document and illustrate the living recollections and memories of these extraordinary survivors. The film celebrates their wartime accomplishments and suggests that their commitment and determination helped lead the way to momentous postwar social changes for women such as voting rights and expanded opportunities in their working lives. These changes solidified the early gains of the Women's rights movement in Canada."
