Released in 2017, Scars Of Nanking is a drama, krieg, historie and dokumentarfilm film directed by John Ealer, running about 44 minutes. “They chose to stay… and paid a price” — that tagline sets the tone.

What it’s about. During the brutal invasion of China in 1937 by Imperial Japanese forces, tens of thousands of civilians and prisoners of war are murdered and women raped in what is known simply as "The Rape of Nanking." This docudrama is a stirring account of a small band of courageous American missionaries who choose to stay in Nanking to try and protect a quarter million vulnerable Chinese civilians who are trapped in a city ruled by a savage, out of control army. Their stories are brought vividly to life through actual real-time letters and diaries as they bear witness to one of the worst wartime atrocities in history.

Who’s in it. Scars Of Nanking stars Gregory Joseph Allen as George Fitch, Ines Laimins as Minnie Vautrin, Andrew Lane Cawthon as Dr. Robert Wilson and Randall Lowell as Father John Magee, among others.
