Bashing

Volunteering to act as an aid worker in Iraq, Yuko (Fusako Urabe) returns to her home in Japan months later, shaken by a period in which she was kidnapped and held hostage in the war-torn country.

Based on true events, this gripping Japanese drama co-stars Nene Otsuka, Kikujiro Honda. 82 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: Japanese; Subtitles: English. In Japanese with English subtitles.
