Dead to Rights(《南京照相馆》),a film shown in 2025,has drawn the attention of the public. Set in Nanjing in 1937,the film tells a touching story that unfolds in a small photo studio.
When the war broke out,a group of ordinary people found shelter in the photo studio. They included a postman,an actress,a translator,a soldier,and the owner of the studio with his family. Their goal was simple:to survive the war. Every day was filled with fear and uncertainty.
One day,they were forced to develop films for Japanese soldiers. While developing a roll of film,they were shocked(震惊)to discover that the photos showed the terrible crimes(罪行)committed(犯)by the Japanese army. The pictures were evidence(证据)of what was happening in Nanjing.

At first,they were scared. They knew that keeping these photos was very dangerous. If the Japanese soldiers found out,they would all be in great danger,perhaps even lose their lives. However,they also realized that these photos were important evidence that could show the truth. After much discussion,they decided to risk their lives to protect the photos. They carefully hid the photos and thought of different ways to ensure their safety.
Finally,through their joint efforts and with great courage,they managed to send the photos out of Nanjing. These photos later became key evidence in the trial(审判)of Japanese war criminals after the war. The film not only shows the cruelty(残暴)of war but also the courage of ordinary people in the face of great danger. It acts as a reminder that we should always remember history and all the fighters.
