Descendants of Chinese labourers and Western officers assigned to the Chinese Labour Corps describe their ancestors' recruitment and passage to Europe, the kind of work they did behind the Front line, the unexpected horrors awaiting the Chinese and their shock at returning to a devastated homeland after the war. A mixture of humour, regret and nostalgia, the anecdotes bring alive the emotions and experiences of the labourers.
