                            <p>Set in the context of the American
                              presence in Korea since 1945, the film
                              reveals unimaginable atrocities committed
                              at the hands of the U.S. Military
                              Government in Korea immediately after
                              WWII. It is not a history of '<i>the
                                Forgotten War</i>,' but for the first
                              time reveals the struggle of the people of
                              Jeju Island, S. Korea to resist US
                              occupation.</p>
                            <p> The film places the modern-day protest
                              by the peaceful people of Jeju Island, S.
                              Korea against the construction of a
                              massive US naval base in the tiny village
                              of Gangjeong in the context of the
                              massacre of as many as 80,000 of their
                              fellow citizens only 60 years ago. </p>
                            <p> Using previously secret and classified
                              photos, film and documents, this is the
                              first English-language documentary about
                              the struggle of the brave people of
                              Gangjeong Village who are opposing the
                              military advance of the United States,
                              just as their parents and relatives did in
                              1947. As then, they are being arrested,
                              jailed, fined, and hospitalized for
                              resisting the construction of a massive
                              naval base that will accommodate America's
                              'pivot to Asia,' and will destroy their
                              400 year old village and their UNESCO
                              protected environment.</p>
                            <p> And yet, the indomitable spirit of the
                              villagers and their supporters, who have
                              not lost hope in spite of overwhelming
                              odds, will inspire and motivate everyone
                              who believes there is a better way to live
                              together on this planet.</p>
                            <p> "<i>the least we can do is to amplify
                                their voices, for with citizenship in
                                America and the world, comes
                                responsibility.</i>" ~Regis Tremblay,
                              director</p>
                            <p> The people of Gangjeong are not alone in
                              this struggle opposing the U.S. military
                              expansion. All of the islands of the
                              Pacific from Hawaii to Okinawa, to Guam,
                              The Philippines and all the way down to
                              Australia are rising up against American
                              imperialism as the U.S. uses fear and
                              power to coerce their leaders to either
                              build or open up their ports and bases to
                              the American military.</p>

                                around the world incited by Washington's
