FOR TEACHERS
With this project, we go beyond the static photographs and news headlines and get to know the men and women who paid the ultimate sacrifice.
In the film, we introduce a new generation of Canadian heroes. We meet their spouses, siblings, children, and parents. We reminisce with old friends at home and re-live life in Afghanistan with comrades in arms. We bear witness and explore the true human cost of war.
The online component is intended to extend identification with our soldiers and to preserve their memory. Here we further expose the stories that surrounded our troops’ lives, investigating the personal connections that made them who they were and illuminating the context of their service careers. Personal stories from friends and loved ones are enriched by comments and stories from people everywhere. We honour the impressions our soldiers’ lives have made and explore the enduring connections and communities that surrounded them.
We Will Remember Them is a tribute to the fallen – an honour roll to help make sure that the lives of these soldiers will not be forgotten.
