Synopsis

A story of a family's struggles through a dark time,taking place in Tokyo during the 1940s. Yamada comments,"You can say this film is a period drama,but in a sense,this is more so a historical investigation. The staff has been studying very hard. I would like to make this film with homage to all of the tender mothers who held her family tight in her thin but strong arms and lived through the hard times."
