During the thirty-two months occupation of Guam by the Japanese Imperial Forces, the native Chamorro population of Guam was subjected to horrific treatment, including torture and murder. This documentary focuses on the massacres that occurred at Apotguan, Agana, Agana Springs, Pigo Cemetery, Sumay Cemetery, Old Agat Cemetery, Fena Caves, Tinta Caves, Faha Hill, Tai, Asinan, Manenggon Valley, and Chagui'an, so that the victims of these massacres will not be forgotten. Project funding was provided in part by a Historic Preservation Fund grant to the Guam State Historic Preservation Office, Department of Parks and Recreation, administered by the Pacific West Regional Office, National Park Service, U.S. Department of the Interior.
