Australian man travels to Turkey to find his three missing sons after 1915's Battle of Gallipoli.

Rating: Null/10 (13 September 2015)

This is a good movie "inspired by real events." The closing credits have the common disclaimer that none of the incidents and characters are intended to represent real persons so we must assume it is primarily a fictional story.
The other thing, viewers outside Australia and New Zealand are not as familiar with the Turkish battle of Gallipoli so some additional information is useful. The opening has a scene where ships are sailing away and a caption tells us that the ANZAC troops are leaving. I had to look it up, 'ANZAC' is for 'Australian and New Zealand Army Corps' recruited and fighting on behalf of the British. They were formed in Egypt in 1915 and disbanded in 1916 following the Allied evacuation of the Gallipoli peninsula.
Russell Crowe, who also directs, stars as Connor, an Australian farmer who had this three young adult sons join the ANZAC and fight in the battle of Gallipoli. When they didn't come home he assumed they were all killed in combat. So many were killed that they were thrown into makeshift graves with no identification. So going over 4 years later to find them would be quite a task, but Connor, after his wife dies of grief, goes over, quite unprepared for what faced him.
It is a bit slow in parts, there is some fighting and action in other parts, but overall a nicely worthwhile movie to see.
SPOILERS: Connor is a water diviner back home, we see one instance where he used two rods to find a new well for his livestock and crops. When he gets to Turkey he must befriend some locals, a difficult task because many believed they were still at war with the Allies, but he makes it unofficially to the battle field where, under the supervision of British and Australian officers, were looking for buried dead with the intent to identify as many as they could by the dog tags still buried with them. Connor mills around, has visions, and "divines" the location of his sons, they dig, they find two of them but not the third. Connor eventually hunts him down and finds out why he never went home. He was supposed to protect his brothers, instead as they lay mortally wounded he shot his brother in the head to end his misery and that guilt had prevented him returning home. As it ends Connor and his son are being chased by militant Greeks and they manage to escape via a hidden passage to a river.
