The story of the Japanese during the Second World War anditheirise & fall of the Japanese Empire 1931-1945. Using never-before-seen footage Japans War In Color tells a previously untold story. It recounts the history of the Second World War from a Japanese perspective, combing original color film with the letters and diaries written by Japanese people. It tells the story of a nation at war from the diverse perspectives of those who lived through it: the leaders and the ordinary people, the oppressors and the victims, the guilty and the innocent. Until recently, it was believed that no color film of Japan existed prior to 1945. But specialist research has now unearthed a remarkable color record from as early as the 1930s. Examples of these extraordinary scenes include Imperial Japanese troops in Manchuria, the visit of Prince Chichibu - Emperor Hirohitos brother - to Britain and his meeting with Adolf Hitler, Japanese aggression in China, unique color film of the surprise attack on Pearl Harbor and vibrant scenes of life on the Japanese home front.For eight years the Japanese fought what they believed was a Holy War that became a fight to the death. Japans War In Color shows how militarism took hold of the Japanese people; describes why Japan felt compelled to attack the West; explains what drove the Japanese to resist the Allies for so long; and, finally, reveals how they dealt with the shame of defeat.
