Tatlong Taông Walang Diyos

I. Summary
The film Tatlong Taông Walang Diyos started with the clips of artillery, missiles, soldiers, war planes and ships during World War II and there was narration of what happened, that the Philippines was occupied by the Japanese and it was three years without God.
November, 1941 when the story started as Crispin, a Filipino was looking for Rosario in the school in Laguna where she teaches. When he saw her gazing faraway waiting for someone, he went to her and the miss asked if he’s going to leave. The man is going to join the resistance against the Japanese and bid goodbye to Rosario. Rosario couldn’t do anything but offer him prayers. Crispin showed Rosario that he will miss her by holding her hand. Rosario shows a face of sadness as the man walks away.
At home, Rosario asks her mother if she believes in the talk of the town that the Japanese are going to invade the country. Her mother believes in God and in America that it is a wealthy and big country. December was the bombing of Pearl Harbor and consequently the attack of Japanese in the Philippines. Instead of fireworks heard to welcome the New Year, bombs and ammunitions were heard and fear was all over the place.
1942: The townspeople were heading to the mountains hoping for a place where they can escape from the Japanese. Rosario’s family stayed, did not believe in the hear sayings about the Japanese and placed their fate on the hands of God. Rosario saw Crispin returning. It was then that Crispin told them about the Death March, of how cruel and inhumane they were treated; he was lucky for he was able to escape. Crispin was furious and told Rosario of what it was to kill. Again, Rosario prayed for him. There was a montage of Rosario and Crispin being sweet and happy together doing chores but Crispin had to go. Rosario wept and placed a rosary around his neck.
Rosario and her family had nothing to eat but sweet potatoes since their domesticated animals were

    December 7th, the Japanese surprise attacked the U.S. Navy Base at Pearl Harbor. This brought the U.S. into WW2. The Japanese attacked with 49 bombers, 40 torpedo planes, 51 dive-bombers, and 43 fighter aircrafts. After the first wave (6:00am- 7:55am) there was a second wave of attack until 9:45am. After the bombing, Japanese Americans were profiled for their race and put into camps. Janet Daijogo was born in California and during 5 to 8 years old, her whole family was taken from their home and moved to camp Topaz. She was too little to understand the injustice and still endures cultural confusion.
