Impressions of "Obaachan's Garden"

In our last class, we watched "Obaachan's Garden". 
As watching the film, I thought that adopting in different culture is not easy.
The scene that strongly imprinted on my mind was, on World War II period, when some guy asked Obaachan's husband, 
"Which side are you on, which country do you want to win!? Japan or Canada!?"
I think that is one of the hardest questions of all. 
Physically, he's Japanese, But he speaks English and living in Canada too...
If I were him, I don't think I can answer that question so easily. How can you make a choice? 

Besides killing and destroying, I thought that this kind of culture and mental problem is also serious problem of war.
