"An examination of the Nanjing massacres (1937), of the exploitation of civilian populations during wartime and their contemporary relevance in terms of nationalism and atrocities which are committed in the name of "ethnic cleansing"."@en
"Weaving together rare footage of the Japanese occupation, diary entries from Western witnesses, and the confessions of Japanese soldiers, this film documents the death of more than 300,000 men, women and children in the Nanjing, China massacres."@en
"Summary: The film is a matter-of-fact account of the Nanking Massacre that integrates diary entries, actual film footage of the massacre shot by an American missionary, Rev. John Magee, interviews with Japanese scholars and former soldiers who recalled in detail how they savagely killed and raped Chinese civilians, and the related story of the comfort women."
""This is the only American documentary film to examine the Rape of Nanjing, December 13, 1937, when the Japanese Imperial troops marched into this city in China. In just six weeks they murdered 300,000 civilians, and systematically raped and killed thousands of women. Today, the Japanese government continues to deny it ever happened. In the Name of the Emperor is a monument to the suffering of the Chinese at the hands of the Japanese during World War II. It weaves together rare footage of the Japanese occupation, diary entries from Americans who were there, and the eyewitness accounts of surviving Japanese soldiers. Especially unique is the newly discovered film footage of the massacre shot by John McGee, an American missionary who was living in Nanjing. This footage was part of the testimony at the war crimes trial, but has never been seen until now. The Nanjing Massacre was the impetus for the Japanese system of "comfort stations" or military brothels in occupied territories to stem the tide of venereal disease. Included is an interview with a Korean "comfort woman" who speaks openly about her sexual servitude. These war crimes continues to disrupt diplomatic relations between Japan, the Philippines, Korea and Taiwan to this day. The horrors captured in this ground-breaking documentary reminds us of the exploitation and suffering of women, and indeed all civilians during war time. There are frightening parallels to the atrocities committed in Bosnia and Rwanda today."--Container."@en

"December 13, 1937, the Japanese army marches into Nanjing, China. Over the next six weeks, more than 300,000 men, women and children will be massacred - many of them after being raped. The Japanese government denies to this day that it ever happened. Weaving together rare footage of the Japanese occupation, diary entries from Western witnesses and the confessions of Japanese soldiers ... [this video] documents one of the more horrible chapters in this century ... makes a marked contribution to the history of exploitation and suffering of civilians, particularly women during wartime."
