"This is the story of a woman who loved and bore the child of her Japanese husband only to be fall into the darkest depths of despair as one by one, her children are taken away from her. This is the story of a young Japanese officer who marched into Singapore in victory but left a totally humbled man after he discovers a past that his father has concealed from him. A War Diary is the story of a family and a country. It's about reaching into one's soul and rising above adversity. It's a story of hope."
