Description

Interviews with people involved in the project are interspersed with footage of the relocation of the Manchester Cenotaph across St Peter's Square in 2014. Following a brief history of the memorial, each aspect of the tricky move and restoration is documented, and the film ends with scenes of the rededication ceremony and the 2014 Centenary Armistice Day ceremony.
