In this screening, the war testimonies of 4 people from the “Kiyan Takeshi,” “Yonesu,” “Maeihei,” and “Mabunjin” districts of Itoman City, which were recorded in 2005, will be briefly edited and screened. The 16 people testifying in the video this time were 8 to 27 years old at the time. You can listen to the memories you have had during the war.
