Website and Trailer for Anthony Gilmore's Behind Forgotten Eyes

Here's a chapter of world history that I'm sure a great many people would like to forget but Anthony Gilmore doesn't plan to let them. During Japan's period of military expansion hundreds of thousands of women - an estimated two hundred thousand from occupied Korea alone - were taken away from their homes and forced to serve as 'comfort women', fulfilling the sexual needs of the Japanese military officers away from home. With the help of Lost's YunJin Kim, who narrates the picture, Gilmore aims to tell the stories of some of those women with his feature length documentary Behind Forgotten Eyes.

It's a tragic piece of history and Gilmore aims to approach it from as many angles as possible. The film's website is online now with trailer included.
