“Compiled from National Film Unit (NFU) newsreel footage shown in New Zealand cinemas during World War II. It is not a detailed history of New Zealand’s part in the war, but it does give fascinating glimpses of the changes which were forced on our society.

Whether on active service with military units, or on the home front the NFU cameramen captured peoples’ attitudes and emotions” - (NFU catalogue)
