Nanking
The true story of how a few brave souls saved the lives of thousands.
Directed by Bill Guttentag, Dan Sturman
Produced by thinkfilm, HBO Documentary Films
A harrowing historical documentary about genocide and sexual violence that finds redemption in the courage of ordinary people who chose to resist.
The story of the rape of Nanking, one of the most tragic events in history. In 1937, the invading Japanese army murdered over 200,000 and raped tens of thousands of Chinese. In the midst of this horror, a small group of Western expatriates banded together to save 250,000. Nanking shows the tremendous impact individuals can make on the course of history.
