The Hall of Memory

The Hall of Memory.
A powerful documentary paying homage to the Australian War Memorial’s Hall of Memory with its stained glass windows, mosaics and Byzantine dome has been released by the Memorial. Presented by Memorial Director Dr Brendan Nelson the film explores the stunning designs of artist Napier Waller OBE CMG and explains the intent behind the 15 stained glass panels, each of which symbolises one of the quintessential qualities displayed by Australians in war.
The documentary draws upon archival material, including photos and documents held by the Memorial woven together with interviews and cinematic footage, filmed by award-winning cinematographer Andy Taylor ACS.
Produced by renowned journalist and film-maker Max Uechtritz and scored by songwriter and record producer Garth Porter, The Hall of Memory was made possible through a financial donation from Michael and Katherine Ribot de Bressac.
