The Flowers of War
Set in December 1937, the Japanese have taken over the city of Nanking. Sixteen school girls take shelter in a church run by an American priest, Father Engelmann. As the soldiers pass through the city, a group of courtesans from a local brothel arrive at the church seeking refuge further endangering the children. Based on true events, The Flowers of War is a powerful story about the impact of war on prejudices and how love can flourish even amidst death and war.
