WWI: Everything Changed plot
The First World War claimed the lives of millions and forever changed the psyche of every nation that took part. The history of that war, and the lessons and legacy it left behind, form the basis of this documentary. The film traces the origins of the war to the events of June 28, 1914. On that fateful day, Austrian Archduke Franz Ferdinand and his wife were assassinated by a Serbian assassin. Within a month, Austria-Hungary declared war on Serbia, which in turn prompted the involvement of the Central Powers and their allies, including Britain, Germany, and France.
