The new film of Vera Brittain‘s Wolrd War 1 memoir Testament Of Youth is released this week and is on at the Watershed in Bristol from January 16th.
The Watershed website says ‘A deft balance of romance and restrained sentimentalism with tough minded human tragedy, this is at once a manifesto of the female experience of war, a sobering account of the loss of a generation, and a brilliant ode to one of our greatest pacifist thinkers. This film is a chance for Brittain to deliver her message afresh, and what a rallying cry it is. ‘
