Soaring to the sky.

Video information

There was once a group of young people, each takeoff potentially their last, each landing a reason to thank the heavens. They fought in the skies, with victory or defeat decided in an instant. They had to be fearless, but had nowhere to run. They were the last generation of fighter pilots in the propeller era, facing enemies and life-and-death situations within visual range, much like the duels of 19th-century noblemen. The documentary film *Flying High* uses the backdrop of theComprehensive war between China and Japan from 1937 to 1945 to present the love, honor, and survival of these young people.
