nanking nanking

Nanking was the capital of the Republic of China in 1937 at the time that the Imperial army of Japan arrived, during one of the Sino-Japanese wars. The Japanese take the city and deliberately kill tens of thousands of prisoners, some soldiers some others not. Women will be systematically raped. This is a black and white film, created with all detail to resemble the period, actors are obviously, dealing with a Chinese movie, anonymous to westerners. This picture describes how the Japanese behaved during these wars with the Chinese, for which, by the way, I think there are still officially open cases at the UN reopened for the victims, those women raped then. Score: 5.7
