The Pacifist Who Went to War (2002)

This documentary is the story of two Mennonite brothers from Manitoba who were forced to make a decision in 1939, as Canada joined World War II.

Fifty years later, the town of Winkler dedicates its first war memorial and John begins to share his war experiences with Ted.
