The date of the program is February 28 (Wednesday), 17:15–20:00. This special film club event features the movie Only the Brave (2006). The war drama focuses on the 100th Infantry Battalion and the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, a segregated unit of Nisei (second-generation Japanese American) soldiers. The film is a fictional depiction of their courage on the battlefield in France during World War II, rescuing the men of the 141st Infantry Regiment, the “Lost Battalion”. Before the screening, Dr. Dániel Cseh will give a brief presentation: “Go for Broke”: The Nisei Soldiers of the 442nd RCT. The presentation will be followed by the screening of the film and an open discussion afterwards.
