Sam Worthington and Hugh Dancy star in this two-part Australian war drama centred on the Gallipoli Campaign. The drama follows journalists Charles Bean (Joel Jackson), Ellis Ashmead Bartlett (Dancy) and Phillip Schuler (Worthington) as they arrive in Gallipoli in 1915. They are sent in with the Allied troops to report on the war first-hand but the correspondents encounter obstacles in their mission to accurately report the escalating conflict.
