Colour Blind follows several young men from Australia on their momentous journey through World War I . There are horrors and discomforts, but the khaki-clad boys get by with courage, quips and a solid culture of mateship. We follow them every step of the way through the gruelling war years, and through the immediate aftermath. What makes Colour Blind unique is the inclusion of some Australian Aboriginals fighting a war for a country that didn't recognise them. The difficulties they face are all down to red tape and the peculiar laws that deny them equal rights. Once they join up, they more than prove their mettle.
