An anti-war song by the master

Sincerely admire Kurosawa Akira, his emotions were not mobilized until the end of the film, and he was so forbearing with tears and emotion-the same black cloud as the day of the atomic explosion, the difference is the storm, the grandmother seems to have returned to 45 years ago The day I lost my husband and family. Raising a pair of children alone, covering up the great grief of the death of their loved ones, and their children staying alone in Nagasaki’s old mansion after leaving home, chanting Buddhist scriptures to calmly greet the last moment, and being able to reunite in another world and meet this snobbery by chance The difference in the world, I hope that in the next generation-seeing that the grandchildren have not forgotten the lessons of the war, my grandmother can finally go on the road with peace of mind after the 45th anniversary of her husband's death. The film satirizes the generation of people who have forgotten history, hides war and worships money. The terrible shadow of war obscured by the memories of their ancestors intersects with traditional allusions and legends of the gods in the outskirts of Nagasaki. It is illusory and hideous, and only the courage to face the plain and plain can remain calm. Living on a land covered by prosperity, and prosperity decided not to cover up the sorrows and joys of a hell on earth. This summer and the summer of that year are double mountains and rivers, but the old people rest, like the heavy rain at the end, the people who run, fall and rise, wash the dirt in the heart and restore the original heart. After the tears and rain, we can finally be in awe. The heart and the heart of rebirth look at the past and face the future.

Letters from parents who went to visit relatives in the U.S.

Grandchildren and grandmother are getting closer

Nagasaki-the place where grandfather sleeps

The school where my grandfather passed away-a twisted iron bar of war

Myth, consolation

Familiar with old people in the moonlight

Remembrance, comfort, and farewell, I can hear my grandmother let out a sigh of relief, ready to go on the road
