From Ignatius:
A new documentary film,called
Nanking,
was just accepted into the
Sundance Film Festival.
Produced by
Ted Leonsis,
and directed by
Bill Guttentag
and
Dan Sturman.
The film focuses on the
Japanese invasion into Nanking
in 1937 and 1938.
The film is based on collective testimony and eye witness accounts from
the Chinrese survivors, Japanese soldiers and the brave westerners who
banded together to save many lives. The film's focus is on how a group
of westerners could work together and save 250,000 lives in the city of
Nanking
during bombing raids; invasion and occupation.
