World War 1. A milestone in violence. Death on an industrial scale. Still, we only talk about those who killed and forget about those who saved lives. The nurses. Tens of thousands of women. Volunteers, facing the horrors of war with little or no practice, relentlessly fighting for life. And yet, like too many women in history, their battle turned into a blank page. It was time to cure our amnesia. To promote the Great War Museum’s exhibition, we made nurses’ untold stories heard, using their own weapons: bandage and thread.
