Opium War

[Janine Hansen]

Hello,

could anybody tell me how to get a copy of AHEN SENSO (Opium War, 1943,
dir. Makino Masahiro)? And has anything been written on this particular
film?

The reason for my query is a request I got from one of the big museums
here in Berlin: The museum (Deutsches Historisches Museum) is planning
an exhibition on Tsingtau from the Opium war in 1842 to WW I. Along with
the exhibition -- which is going to take place in spring 1998 -- they
will show a selection of films. They would like to present AHEN SENSO in
comparison with Chinese films on the same topic and have unsuccessfully
tried to get hold of a copy.

Thanks for your help!
