This is a story about World War II. For the Chinese, the concept of World War II is actually a bit macro. We often call it the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression.
The entire film was shot by Americans from the perspective of Japanese soldiers. This is rare, because the Battle of Iwo Jima was a war between Japan and the United States.
Iwo Jima is a very delicate place. Once this place is captured, Japan will basically be in a very dangerous situation. So it can be said that how strong the faith of the Japanese is, how tragic this war will be.
But the Japanese soldier is not a machine, not even a real soldier. Most of them were arrested like strong men, and they didn't know what this war was for. They were just ordinary people.
