A brutal showing of the Japanese occupation of Nanking, China; Also known as The Rape of Nanking, for the terror wrought on the populace.
The movie is incredibly well shot, and while there are some major technical flaws with it (the subtitles are confusingly delayed and the handwritten postcards setting up each scene are indecipherable), it successfully displays the dark, senseless breakdown of humanity while clashing with systematic brutality.
The clip is of an impressive Japanese victory dance. Pretty powerful.
