Synopsis

Spoiler shield

The film uses Chinese actors to play the Japanese protagonist, uses Chinese perspectives to criticize Yamato’s militarism, and is filmed by a Taiwanese director born after the war. The story of the Japanese imperial army during World War II is a prominent feature in the history of Chinese cinema. Try. Although the creative ambition of the director Zhou Teng affected the overall performance of the film because of his wishful thinking on the theme and handling, his efforts in exploring new themes and the rigorous production attitude are still worthy of recognition.

“Some stories are better left unspoiled.”
