The Apology follows the personal journeys of three former comfort women who were among the 200,000 girls and young women kidnapped and forced into military sexual slavery by the Imperial Japanese Army during World War II. Some 70 years after their imprisonment in so-called comfort stations, the three grandmothers know that time is running out to give a first-hand account of the truth and ensure that this horrific chapter of history is not forgotten.
As the film unfolds, their history and the struggles that have shaped them and continue to impact their lives come into view. Whether they are seeking a formal apology from the Japanese government or summoning the courage to finally share their secret with loved ones, their resolve moves them forward as they seize this last chance to set future generations on a course for reconciliation, healing, and justice.
