Lord Of The Rings filmmaker Peter Jackson has dramatically restored and coloured footage of the First World War – detailing what it felt like to be there like never before.
The Oscar winning director claims that the technicolour transformation “brings to life the human experience of the conflict”.
Jackson used cutting edge techniques to modernise the 100-year-old footage, some of which has never been seen before.
The clips from the Imperial War Museum’s vast archive have been used to stitch together a 3D film which will be seen later this year.
Hand-colourised, it will premiere at the BFI London Film Festival before airing on BBC1.
