Missing April by David Porteous

He went to battlefields, cemeteries, monuments, all the while filming every step of the way.

Not only that, but he also carried a guitar with him and wrote and recorded music, on-location, based on his experiences and feelings throughout the trip.

The journey was a great success with over 55 hours of film shot including interivews with soldiers who fought in World War Two, as well as over 25 brand new songs.
