Abducted: The Megumi Yokota Story

Release date: 25 November 2006 (Japan)

This film recounts the abduction of Japanese citizens by the North Korean government in 1977 in order for them to teach Korean spies Japanese and japanese culture. It is a dramatic, sad and moving story of parents love for their children. It is also a testament to hope. When, near the end of the movie, you watch 5 of the 13 abductees return to Japan and reunite with their families, oh gosh, the tears started flowing for most folks in the Al Green Theatre, let me tell you. Well worth 85 minutes of your time. Bring kleenex.

My rating 10 out of 10.
