Synopsis:

From Academy Award Winner Clint Eastwood (MILLION DOLLAR BABY) comes the untold story of the Japanese soldiers and their general who 61 years ago defended against the invading American forces on the island of Iwo Jima.

Almost 7,000 American soldiers were killed on Iwo Jima; more than 20,000 Japanese troops perished. The black sands of Iwo Jima are stained with their blood, but their sacrifices, their struggles, their courage, and their compassion live on in the letters they sent home.
