AbstractHistoryArchive Description

'In 'The Water Diviner', Russell Crowe - who also directed the film - plays a father searching for the sons he had lost in the war. But according to Brian McFarlane, Crowe's directorial debut also highlights how historical distance allows us to reconsider the ANZAC legend and how search narratives inevitably offer characters more than what they're looking for.'
