Inspired by the astonishing diaries of John Rabe. The globe stands on the brink of World War II, Shanghai has fallen and deadly Japanese bombers target the infamous city of Nanking. As savage bombing raids devastate the city, veteran entrepreneur John Rabe, a German living the high life in the social whirl of Nanking, must make an agonising choice: to flee or give sanctuary to the terrified population within the gates of his factory.
When the Imperial Japanese Army discovers rich ‘Nazi’ Rabe’s selfless operation, they see it as an act of high treason. Rabe and his comrades find themselves in a race against time to fight for a safety zone to protect the hundreds of thousands of innocent victims of this ultimate act of war.
