Abstract
The article discusses several lessons to be learned from feminist analysis of the First World War as depicted in the 1981 Australian feature film "Gallipoli." It mentions that the film in its aftermaths deliver a message to pay close attention to the ways in which women's suffrage campaigns were implicated in the War and in militarism. Also discussed are the aftermaths of the War such as the Japanese colonialism in Korea, anti-colonial nationalism in Egypt and consolidation of Turkish Republic.
