BBC 二次世界大戰系列中 極具爭議性的一部
史上最震撼的恐怖戰爭 二次世界大戰結束60年後
透過珍貴紀錄片、歷史資料 及 受害者親述
重新剖析殘酷背後的驚人真相
揭示日軍冷血暴行 及 當中匪夷所思的事件
本節目透過珍貴的紀錄片、歷史資料、一班老兵及受害人親述,以多角度重新剖析二次大戰時期,在東南亞一帶的可怕經歷。
前神風隊機師謙一郎說:「所有人的眼神都是相同的,他們就像深海魚仰望藍天。自此,我再沒有看過更悲傷的情境。那時候,我面前這班人大概只有二十餘歲,他們都正直壯年。」
一次大戰時,日軍視德國戰俘為上賓,但二十年後,一切完全改寫。二次大戰時期,日軍兇殘地對待中國、新加坡、緬甸和馬來亞的戰俘及平民,最後被世界冠以冷血殘暴的罪名。
除此以外,日本人更自視為優越的民族,對「榮譽」、「屈辱」及國家領袖「天皇」有著與別不同的見解。這看法驅使日軍籌組「神風隊」作自殺式攻擊,亦令大批日本平民在外國軍隊佔領前自殺身亡,更令數以萬計士兵寧死不降。
本節目採訪了前日軍士兵、神風隊飛機師、盟軍戰俘和受害者,以最新收集得來的底片和記錄短片,揭示日軍在二次大戰時期的暴行。當中更討論到匪夷所思的事物,包括靖國神社、戰爭中出現的食人事件、令人心寒的殘暴酷刑,還有神風隊的出現和在日本出現大規模平民自殺的幕後真相。
"Everybody had the same expression in their eyes. Like a deep sea fish looking up into the blue sky. I've never seen sadder expressions in the eyes since then. You only know that when you see them. Those young people around 20, in the prime of their youth." Former kamikaze pilot Kenichiro Ooonuki
How did the Japanese earn their wartime reputation for inhumane cruelty and self-barbarism? In World War I, Japan was noted for its civil treatment of German POWs, yet just 20 years later they were displaying horrific brutality against the Chinese and merciless treatment of POWs in Singapore, Burma and Malaya. The beliefs of racial superiority that inspired these atrocities were matched by concepts of honour and humiliation that motivated kamikaze pilots, brought mass civilian suicides and led thousands of Japanese soldiers to chose to die rather than surrender.
Using newly-studied archive film and specially-shot footage as well as interviews with former Japanese soldiers, kamikaze pilots, Allied POWs and victims of atrocities, this compelling film investigates Japanese military brutality and their psyche at war. It reveals both the unimaginable inhumanity - including cannibalism and crucifixion - and the complex truth behind the kamikazes and the mass suicides.
