Behind The Forgotten Eyes-Trailer

Nuremberg. The trials of Nazi war criminals in the aftermath of the Second World War are well known around the world as an example of justice delivered. Yet there were other unspeakable crimes stemming from that war, and for their victims, justice has been denied. Germany has reckoned with her wartime past. When, if ever, will Japan do the same? Behind Forgotten Eyes presents the stories of a few brave women who came forward and broke the silence protecting a past that some want to stay buried. What are these stories that were hidden for so long? Whilst Korea groaned under the harsh colonial rule of Imperial Japan, the Japanese military coerced, tricked, and forced the women of Korea into a brutal and systematic form of sexual slavery on an unimaginable scale. During colonial Japan's wars, the Japanese military procured more than 200,000 Korean girls and women to serve as sexual slaves. Forbidden to leave the rickety shacks hastily constructed near the front lines of Imperial Japan's aggressive wars, often with a blanket as the room's only "furniture", they were forced to have sex with some 30-40 men every day. To this day, the Japanese government has yet to formally apologize or pay compensation to these women. This film touches not only on the past but also the vital lesson that history must not be allowed to repeat itself. Behind Forgotten Eyes examines the enduring legacy of this horrifying chapter of history in both Korea and Japan. As the first English-language film to tackle this volatile issue, Behind Forgotten Eyes aims to focus the world's attention on this unsettled aspect of Japan's colonial heritage and to educate an American public unfamiliar with East Asian history and modern society. Behind Forgotten Eyes combines first-hand accounts from both Korean women and Japanese soldiers who lived through the nightmare with the expert testimony of academics, social activists, and professionals from Japan, Korea, and the United States to offer a candid look into an issue that has been ignored for far too long. Time is running out for these women and their stories. Written by Anthony Gilmore

위안부(慰安婦)는 제2차 세계대전 동안 일본군의 성적 욕구를 해소하기 위하여, 강제•집단적으로 수용되어 성적인 행위를 강요당한 여성을 말한다. 위안부의 대부분은 일본인과 조선인이었으며, 중국인과 대만인도 희생당하였다. 그밖에 필리핀, 타이, 베트남, 말레이시아, 인도네시아 등 일본이 점령한 국가 출신의 여성들도 일본군에 의해 희생되었다. 생존한 사람들은 그들이 하루에 30번 이상 강간당했다고 증언하였다. 위안부라는 단어 자체는 1973년 이전에는 존재하지 않았고, 그 해에 출판된 《종군위안부(従軍慰安婦)》(센다 가고(千田夏光) 지음)라는 소설에 처음 등장했다. 이것에 대해서 일본의 일부에서는 위안부의 일본군에 의한 강제 연행을 인정하지 않고 있다. 1992년부터 서울 종로구 일본 대사관 앞에서는 매주 수요시위가 열린다.........

慰安婦（いあんふ）とは日中戦争や太平洋戦争当時に、 慰安所と呼ばれた施設で旧日本軍の軍人の性行為の相手になった婦女の総称である。戦後、人により従軍慰安婦とも呼ばれる。制度としては、軍相手の「管理売春」という商行為­であったが、実態については、慰安婦達に報酬が払われていたとはいえ過酷な性労働を強いた性的な奴隷に等しいとする主張もあり、旧日本軍のケースでは慰安婦を強制連行した­のか否か、強制的なものであったか等の点に疑問が呈されており、日本の国としての責任や女性の人権などの観点をめぐって、今日まで、政治的・社会的に大きな議論を呼ぶ問題­となっている。

petiteblackgirl,

I recommend you to check "The racial equality proposal" proposed by Japan at Paris Peace Conference in 1919 by wikipedia.

[2008venom]

Nazi war criminals accused for A)Crimes against Peace (invasion), B)Ordinary war crimes, and C)Crimes against Humanity (Holocaust).

Japanese war criminals accused for A)Crimes against Peace, B)Ordering ordinary war crimes, and C)Carrying out ordingary war crimes.

There was NO Japanese war criminal accused for Crimes against Humanity, because Japanese never planned extermination of a nation like as Nazis.

It is historical fact. Nazi and Imperial Japan were totally different.

Congratulations Japanese nazi. You are now an evil person. now go a way.
