synopsis: Set during the height of the First World War, PASSCHENDAELE tells the story of Sergeant Michael Dunne (Paul Gross), a soldier who is brutally wounded in France and returns to Calgary emotionally and physically scarred. While in the military hospital in Calgary, he meets Sarah (Caroline Dhavernas), a mysterious and attractive nurse with whom he develops a passionate love. When Sarah's younger asthmatic brother David (Joe Dinicol) signs up to fight in Europe, Michael feels compelled to return to Europe to protect him. Michael and David, like thousands of Canadians, are sent to fight in the third battle of Ypres, a battle against impossible odds, commonly known as "Passchendaele". It is a story of passion, courage and dedication, showing the heroism of those that fought in battle, and of the ones that loved them.

сюжет: Третья битва при Ипре, известная как битва за Пашендаль, оказалась одной из самых жестоких битв Первой Мировой войны, унесшей жизни сотен тысяч солдат. Из-за дождя, продолжавшегося несколько месяцев, место боев превратилось в мешанину из воды и грязи, и множество солдат просто утонуло в грязи прежде, чем было убито врагом…
