About The War of the Girl
Harbin, China, January 1945. Japan continued the war for 14 years, and many people from Japan moved to what is now the northeastern part of China, which was called Manchuria at the time. Ecchan, who came from Japan, dreams of becoming a mother as soon as possible and having 20 children to become soldiers. It was a big dream for a little Ecchan who still didn't understand the horror of war and its meaning. August 15. After Japan lost the war, the Chinese people, who had been discriminated against, began to take out their anger and pain on the Japanese. From this moment on, Ecchan's sad fate begins until they return to Japan.
Directed by Seiji Arihara, The War of the Girl leans on a strong ensemble — Minami Takayama, Aruno Tahara, Daisuke Sakaguchi — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about history titles of 2002.
