A highly controversial, some say treasonous, anti-British, anti-American historical drama made in Japanese-occupied Shanghai (1944). Three young Japanese samurai traveled to Shanghai on a mission during the Taiping Rebellion of the mid-19th century, and what they saw there was that China was dominated by Europeans and enraged Chinese people were rebellious. A family drama plays out against this historical background. After a Chinese home is destroyed by careless British shelling, killing the father and crippling a daughter, the surviving son vows revenge but begins to see that his true friends may be the Japanese.
We hate to say it, but we can't find anywhere to view this film.
