I have come across information about Nazi persecution of Jews and massacres in concentration camps before, but I always feel that it is nothing compared to the crimes committed by the Japanese invaders against the Chinese people. After watching this movie, I think it is the Jewish experience that is more painful. .
During World War II, nearly 6 million Jews were slaughtered, and they were imprisoned in concentration camps to be slaughtered.
One thing worth exploring is that the specific details and truth of the persecution and massacre of Jews by the Nazis were not known to the world after World War II, and the survivors of the concentration camps did not complain about the crimes of the Nazis or cry about their own crimes on the world stage. encounter. Gao Xiaosong attributed this phenomenon in one of his episodes to the fact that Jews did not want to be disgusted by people from all over the world, so no Jews came forward to ask for an explanation. It is also said in the film that the survivors of the concentration camps even have the mentality of helpers of crime and are reluctant to stand up. It was not until the live TV public trial recorded in the movie happened that people all over the world, mainly in the Western world, re-recognized the bloody and inhumane massacre that took place in the concentration camps, and the situation of the Jews during World War II was widely known and understood. pity.
This trial is called the "trial of the century" in the Western world, not the Tokyo trial that is more familiar to the Chinese people. After comparison, it can be found that in this trial, the public prosecutor not only provided a lot of witnesses, but also a lot of video materials, and they were well prepared. On the other hand, China's performance in the Tokyo trial was far from satisfactory. "The old thinking of the trial did not pay enough attention to the trial, resulting in insufficient preparation of evidence, so that some war criminals did not receive the punishment they deserved.
