Event Navigation
In this ASIANET: fokus film seminar the acclaimed and award winning film Shusenjo is shown. Director Miki Dezaki will introduce the film, and will have a moderated conversation with Dick Stegewerns and Chiaki Nishijima (UiO) after the film.
The “comfort women” issue is perhaps Japan’s most contentious present-day diplomatic quandary. Inside Japan, it is dividing the country across clear ideological lines. Supporters and detractors of “comfort women” are caught in a relentless battle over empirical evidence, the validity of oral testimony, the number of victims, the meaning of sexual slavery, and the definition of coercive recruitment.
