Summary:

Fourteen veterans break Japan's unspoken code of silence, remembering their brutal war crimes as enlisted men in China from 1931 to 1945. Now in their 70s and 80, they tell the truth of the atrocities they committed as young soldiers in this harrowing contribution to the history of Japanese-Chinese relations.
