Games on the Battlefield (2015)
Built on archive footage – much of it previously unseen – this film reveals one of the most unexpected legacies of the First World War -- popular participation in sports, once the realm of the elite. For four years, sport represented a welcome respite from the killing fields of Europe.
Directors: Anne Bettenfeld, Christophe Duchiron.
