Rhapsody in August 1991 Directed by Akira Kurosawa 八月の狂詩曲
Tears. Laughter. Innocence. It was a summer of remembering.
The story centers on an elderly hibakusha, whose husband was one of 80,000 human beings killed in the 1945 atomic bombing of Nagasaki, caring for her four grandchildren over the summer. She learns of a long-lost brother, Suzujiro, living in Hawaii who wants her to visit him before he dies.
