The First World War: Shackled to a Corpse (2003)
Episode 5, Season 1
Best Documentary on World War I in the East You Will Find Anywhere

Basically as the title says. This is the best documentary you will find on the early years of the Eastern Front (1914-1917) that you will find anywhere. Very comprehensive, and shows footage that is rarely seen and much harder to find.
For anyone who has an interest in the Galician front, the war between Austria and Russia, the initial battles between Russia and Germany, and the extremely dangerous Italian front - which in a lot of ways was even more dangerous for soldiers than the western front - then you need to watch this video. Especially good for the footage of Austrian troops, which is exceedingly rare and hard to find.
10/10. Anyone who gave this film a 5 or a 1 simply is not interested in history or the First World War.
