Synopsis
1927年,古利克博士主导将大约一万两千个“蓝眼睛娃娃”赠送给日本的小学和幼儿园,以此作为美日友好的象征。但1941年太平洋战争爆发后,这些玩偶被视为“敌国玩偶”而遭到破坏——许多被烧毁或用竹枪刺穿。这是一个关于孩子们试图拯救这些玩偶的故事。
Background
Although many of the dolls actually did not have blue eyes, they were fondly received by the Japanese children of the time, even giving rise to a popular song "Blue-eyed Doll". To express their gratitude for the gifts, the Japanese sent 58 Japanese dolls to America. During the war, the dolls sent to the U.S. were not destroyed, but were put away in storage where they could not be viewed. Currently, about 38 Japanese dolls and 300 blue-eyed dolls are known to still exist.
