Student Documentary on Unit 731 Gets National Recognition

6.20.25 – Earlier this month, a group of students from the Albuquerque School of Excellence competed in the national documentary competition put on by National History Day. Those four students went through a rigorous research and production process to tell the story of Unit 731, a classified human experimentation project in Japan during World War II. Two members of that student documentary team sat down with host Nash Jones to tell us about what they learned, and what it took to bring their short film to the national stage.
