In 1916 Lieutenant Colonel Lawrence 'Curly' Blyth, left New Zealand to fight in World War l. In 2018, his grandchildren — director David Blyth and David's sister Jennifer Radford — and great grandson retraced his footsteps in Europe. Stopping first in Cairo, Egypt, where Curly trained for the battlefield, the descendants are captured on camels, echoing a photo of Curly doing the same. Then they travel around France, where Curly fought, visiting several gravesites of fallen soldiers. Curly would earn a French Legion of Honour. Grandfather's Footsteps screened as part of Maori Television's Anzac Day programming.
