Nanking tells the story of the Japanese invasion of Nanking, China in the early days of World War II, and how a small group of unarmed Westerners established a “safety” zone where over 200,000 Chinese found refuge.
Featuring archival footage, interviews with survivors and staged readings of letters, and testimonies by actors, Nanking re-examines the events of the so-called “rape of Nanking”, the site of the massacre of thousands of Chinese civilians. Cinema as an essential act of remembrance.
