	Witness to History: Canadian Survivors of WWII In Asia is a companion DVD to the learning resource, Human Rights in the Asia Pacific 1931-1945 – Social Responsibility and Global Citizenship developed by the BC Ministry of Education and BC ALPHA. The documentary features the story of four Asian Holocaust survivors, namely Miriam, Tang Yongjiang, Tony Cowling and Marius van Dijk van Nooten. Three of them were children during wartime, and Tony was only 17 years old when he became a POW. They witnessed and experienced the suffering and horrors of war, particularly the impact of atrocities on women and children. The length of each survivor's testimony ranges from 21 to 31 minutes, and each story was appropriately "chapterized" to allow teachers versatility in classroom use. There is also a 17-minute clip of testimony highlights available in case teachers require a shorter overview. Interviews with the survivors and video editing were done by Celine Rumalean. Celine is an independent documentary filmmaker, whose feature documentary Yesterday is Now examines how modern-day Japan understands its wartime past.
