Widows of War
For thousands of families in Britain, Remembrance
Sunday is not enough. This film features four women who lost their husbands during very different conflicts but they share the same feelings of futility and isolation at the loss of their loved ones. Left to fend for themselves on meagre pensions, many war widows have been fighting their own very personal battles to this day. Suggested by a letter from a war widow, this moving film is a tribute to their courage.
