The feature film epic of the great WW1 Australian General John Monash credited with turning the tide of the War by the Germans themselves. The son of German Jewish immigrants, he had to fight bigotry as well as the enemy. He crashed through the German lines with 200,000 plus Australian soldiers on the 8th August, 1918, at Amiens, triggering the end of WW1 with brilliant planning. George V went to the Front within a week to knight Monash, the first time a King had done this in 200 years. A brilliant engineer Monash was also the only foreign general to have been allowed to command American troops in combat. Scrubbed out of history books outside of Australia this film reinstates him as undoubtedly one of the greatest generals of the Great War.
