Diaoyu Island - The truth by German director Christie Ribby

*DIAOYU ISLANDS*

*The United States suddenly announced the largest iron evidence of the ownership of the Diaoyu Islands!*

The world was in an uproar, and the American "The Truth about the Diaoyu Islands" made the Japanese media collectively speechless. Be sure to invite patriotic compatriots to see!

From the perspective of a Westerner, Hollywood director Libby said a fair word to the world: the Diaoyu Islands belong to China.

For this truth, most Japanese mainstream media chose to collectively aphasia, and only a few media published a briefing.

Libi did not shoot "The Truth about Diaoyu Islands" for money or to speak for the Chinese government, but out of the artist's due conscience and a responsible attitude towards history.

There is an old saying in China: "The truth cannot be fake." It means that no matter how much you cover it up or how clever you are, you can't cover up the truth. The same is true for the issue of sovereignty over the Diaoyu Islands.

The documentary "The Truth about the Diaoyu Islands", shot by German-born Hollywood director Christie Ribby, has premiered in the United States and China one after another, drawing attention from the outside world.

This 40-minute documentary, through detailed historical materials, comprehensively sorts out the ins and outs of the dispute over the Diaoyu Islands, and expounds the fact that "the Diaoyu Islands have belonged to China since ancient times".

The film also recorded the crimes committed by Japan during the war of aggression against China, including the Nanjing Massacre, and the 731 Unit used Chinese to conduct bacteria experiments.

It also used a narration to call on the Japanese government to face up to history, apologize to the Chinese people for war crimes, and recognize that the Diaoyu Islands belong to China.

The film also criticized the United States for ignoring China's legitimate demands to take back the Diaoyu Islands when the "San Francisco Peace Treaty" was signed in 1951.

In order not to be considered "paid publicity", Ribby, 76, raised $500,000 to shoot the historical documentary independently.
In order to strive for truth, he consulted a large number of historical materials with the rigor unique to the Germans, "libraries, archives, the Internet... Wherever you can find data, go there".

The film uses a lot of persuasive photo and video data, some of which are from the archives of the National Archives of the United States, as well as historical materials purchased from the film studio.

In addition, he also went to China's Nanjing Massacre Memorial Hall, Sun Yat-sen Memorial Hall and other places to shoot on-site to testify the content of the film.

In order to clarify the context of Sino-Japanese relations, Ribi even expanded his research horizon to the naval battle of Baijiangkou on the Korean Peninsula between Japan and the Tang Dynasty in 663 AD.

As for the reason for filming "The Truth about Diaoyu Islands", Ribby said: "As a German living in the United States, I feel very sad to see that the Western media always distort the coverage of China.

Especially on the Diaoyu Islands issue, no real information can be found through the Western media, which is related to the overall prejudice of the Western media against China. "I feel that I should do something to make up for the lack of Western media on the Diaoyu Islands issue. This is the original intention of my creation of "The Diaoyu Islands". "

Another important reason for making the film, Ribby said, was that he had been indignant that Japan had not apologized to China for its aggressive behavior.

He said: "Germany also did terrible things during World War II, but we will repent. In 1970, the then Federal German Chancellor Brandt went to the Polish Jewish Martyrdom Monument to kneel and apologize, which had a very positive impact on the Germans.

I am personally very grateful for what Brandt has done, otherwise we will be cursed by the tragic memory of the past, which has always been there.
