Movie Info

TWENTY TWO follows the lives of the elderly survivors who were forced into sex slavery as "Comfort Women" by the Japanese during World War II. At the time of filming, only 22 of these women were still alive to tell their story; through their own personal histories and perspectives, they tell a tale that should never be forgotten to generations unaware of the brutalization that occurred.

All Critics (5) | Top Critics (2)

Slow-moving and sad, "Twenty Two" isn't easy to watch, but it isn't meant to be.

Top Critic

For viewers unfamiliar with the topic, "Twenty Two" provides the basic facts about the estimated 200,000 women enslaved in Japanese-occupied China.

Emotionally powerful and mesmerizing. As profoundly moving, haunting and spellbinding as Shoah. One of the best documentaries of the year.
