Wings of Defeat brings viewers behind the scenes of World War II’s Pacific theater
to reveal the truth about the Kamikaze—the “suicide bombers” of their day. Interviews
with surviving kamikaze, rare battle footage and Japanese propaganda reveal a side
of WWII never before shown on film. American vets from the greatest generation tell
harrowing tales of how they survived attacks. Wings of Defeat shatters the myth
of the fanatical kamikaze to reveal a generation of men forced to pay for an empire’s
pride with their lives.
