The Girl and The Picture





Synopsis

A story of loss, survival, and legacy, The Girl and The Picture conveys the impact of memory on future generations. In 1937, 8-year-old Xia Shuqin witnessed the murder of her family in the horror that would become known as the Nanjing Massacre. In the days that followed, an American missionary took a photo of Shuqin with her surviving sister in the ruins of their family home. Now 88, Madame Xia is one of the last eyewitnesses to these events, coming to terms with her legacy through the eyes of her own granddaughter and the grandson of the missionary photographer.
