Synopsis
A survey made by high school students of the Hata district which investigates Nippon's colonial policies toward Korea, with workers from the latter imported to Japan from 1910 through World War II. The study, itself, serves to shed light on and publicly acknowledge past wrongs inflicted on the Korean population by their Japanese neighbors.
