Countdown to Sanctuary Wood

Presented by local filmmaker Cliff Caprani, this documentary traces the story of Sidney Rich, a member of one of Ladner's pioneer families, from the time of his enlistment in the Canadian Expeditionary Force in 1915, to his death at Sanctuary Wood in 1916. Follow Cliff and descendants of the Rich family, as they travel to Europe to retrace Sidney's last year of life, and better understand the experiences of young Canadian soldiers who fought in the Great War.  Conversation and questions are welcome after the film.
