The Allied High Command hides the true human cost of the D-Day invasions at Normandy, both military and civilian. More and more questions are posed about what is happening to the Jews of Europe. Having kept the truth about the fate of Jewish minorities and others hidden, Germany invites members of the International Committee of the Red Cross to tour the "show camp" Theresienstadt, near Prague, to dispel rumors of mass killings. The Japanese are growing increasingly anxious while the Americans are being bombarded with anti-Japanese propaganda. The firebombing of Tokyo, recorded by Koyo Ishikawa, kills more than 100,000 and shocks the Japanese people but neither the Americans nor the Japanese want to acknowledge the true brutality and Ishikawa buries his photographs in order to protect the truth of what happened for future generations.
