Plot summary
In 1945, Japan surrendered to the United States and the Second World War was over. Right? Wrong. For eighty percent of the Japanese community in Brazil, Japan had won the war and defeat was nothing more than American propaganda. The few immigrants that accepted the truth were persecuted. Some were hunted down and assassinated - by their own countrymen - causing the start of a new, private war. Dirty Hearts is a thriller and love story told by the wife of one of the fanatics dedicated to preach Japanese victory. Little by little, she watches her husband, a hard-working immigrant, become an assassin and their love story fade away.

A gripping look into fanaticism and identity crisis, based on Fernando Morais' literary journalism masterpiece 'Dirty Hearts: The History of Shindo Renmei', winner of the 2001 Prêmio Jabuti.

An interesting slice of history that I was ignorant of (look up Shindo Renmei on Wikipedia for an overview).
