John Rabe - Official US Trailer

Opens 5/21 at Quad Cinema in NYC and 6/4 at Laemmle Theatres in Los Angeles

Based on a true story, John Rabe tells the story of a German businessman who rescued more than 200,000 civilians during the so-called Nanking Massacre in China. Drawing from John Rabes 1937 diaries as source material, Academy Award ® Winner Florian Gallenberger has crafted a portrait of a man revered as a saint in China to this day and yet never rewarded for his courage during his lifetime. An Official Selection at the Berlin Film Festival. Winner of 4 Golden Lolas, Germany's top film prize, for Best Film, Best Actor, Best Costume and Best Production Design.

I never thought I would want to watch any movie based off the the Nanking massacre, but this looks good.

The Good Man of Nanking: The Diaries of John Rabe by John Rabe(German)

"Shortly before eight o'clock Colonels Lung and Chow arrive (Ling has marched off by now) and ask if they can take shelter in my house. I agree. Before Han and I left for home, these two gentlemen deposited 30,000 dollars in the committee's safe." (The Good Man of Nanking, p.64.)
