nanking now playing in new York


The New York Times reviews the documentary Nanking, directed by Bill Guttentag and Dan Sturman: Giving Testimony on the Horror That Was Nanking. The film, which made its premiere at the Sundance Film Festival this year, recounts the Japanese military's brutal invasion of Nanking in 1937. I haven't seen it yet, but I'm interested the film's use of a mixed-media format to tell the story of the massacre. Nanking is currently playing exclusively at the Film Forum in New York.
