Hey friends! 👋 Have you heard about a new documentary called ‘The Sinking of the Lisbon Maru’? It’s an incredible true story that takes us back to October 1942 during World War II. 🌍✨
Imagine a large ship named the Lisbon Maru sailing near the coast of China. On board were many British prisoners of war. Suddenly, the ship was torpedoed and began to sink! 😱🚢
But here’s where heroes step in. Local Chinese fishermen saw the sinking ship and bravely risked their lives to save 384 British soldiers! 🛶❤️ They didn’t worry about danger; they just wanted to help.
This act of courage shows how kindness can cross borders and bring people together, no matter where they’re from. 🌐🤝
The documentary was made by a Chinese director named Fang Li and premiered in London this March. Audiences loved it because it tells a heartfelt story about bravery and selflessness. 🎬👏
