There will be a special free screening of World War I movie Beneath Hill 60 at the Coledale RSL on Tuesday, April 23.

Presented by Clifton School of Arts, the film will be introduced by its writer and co-producer, David Roach.

Based on an extraordinary true story, Beneath Hill 60 stars Brendan Cowell as Captain Oliver Woodward.

In 1916 Woodward tears himself away from the woman he loves to join the army’s new, top-secret Australian Tunnelling Company. After minimal training, these civilian miners are sent to the mud and carnage of the Western Front. Deep beneath the German lines, Woodward and his platoon fight to defend a labyrinthine tunnel system packed with high explosives.
