Although it is a German film, the Japanese crimes are even more hated from the description of the film. The Nanjing Massacre, a German can save 200,000 people from a humanitarian perspective. The film has transcended culture and race. Speaking from the perspective of human nature, in contrast to Japan at that time, this kind of crime and shame should be kept in mind as a Chinese. The film starts from the perspective of Rabe's diary. Although the story is not so coherent, it still restores the background and the original appearance of the events in a very orderly manner. After all, looking at China's tragedy from a third-party perspective may not describe Japan's crimes so comprehensively and profoundly, but from the dialogue and details of the film, you can still feel the brutality of Japan at that time. Regarding the trampling of human nature, it can only be said that the film gives the audience a lot of space, but the result of Rabe is a bit miserable. Overall, this is a good documentary about the Nanjing Massacre from a third perspective.
