The first panoramic shots of trenches, with the voiceover of The Shepherd, in particular the part depicting mountains of shell cases are taken from real photographs of the Battle of The Somme. Fought between July and November 1916, with no clear winner, it cost the lives of around 700,000 British and French soldiers and 550,000 Germans. As shown, entire battalions were mowed down with machine gun fire, and over one million shells were fired in the first week alone.
