Death on the Battlefield

Fujita and Sara fly to Vietnam where he meets Ho-San who offers him an old camera, a 1965 Leica M3. It was reputedly owned by the Pulitzer Prize winning war photographer Kyousuke Kawaguchi who apparently died during the Vietnam War. Fujita uses Ho-San to track down Kawaguchi, and finds him living in a village married to a Vietnamese woman. Kawaguchi initially denies his identity, but then confesses his story of how he could no longer tolerate the horrors and cruelty of the battlefield and stopped taking photographs. Fujita offers to buy his unreleased photographs, but Sara tries to destroy them as she reveals that war killed her family. As Fujita tries to console her, Kawaguchi photographs them together with his old camera.
