An extraordinary tale

By JONATHON HOWARD

RUSSELL Crowe stars in the latest Christmas blockbuster The Water Diviner, which is receiving rave reviews.
The Water Diviner is an adventure film set four years after the devastating battle of Gallipoli in Turkey during World War I.
Australian farmer Connor (Crowe) travels to Istanbul to discover the fate of his sons, reported missing in action, where he forges a relationship with the beautiful Turkish woman (Kurylenko) who owns the hotel in which he stays.
Holding on to hope, and with the help of a Turkish officer, Connor embarks on a journey across the country to find the truth about the fate of his sons.
The film is an extraordinary tale of love, faith and heroism set amongst the hardships of war and loss.
