Scars of Nanking

During the harrowing 1937 invasion of China by Imperial Japanese troops, countless civilians and prisoners of war fall victim to murder and women suffer sexual violence in the horrific event known as “The Rape of Nanking.” This docudrama compellingly portrays a group of brave American missionaries who decide to remain in Nanking, striving to safeguard 250,000 at-risk Chinese civilians trapped in a city dominated by a ruthless and chaotic military force. Their experiences are vividly depicted through authentic letters and diaries, capturing their firsthand accounts of one of history’s most appalling wartime atrocities.
