- Summary:
- At 8:15 am on August 6, 1945, in Hiroshima, the first atomic bombing instantly killed 70,000+ Japanese civilians, while the rest scrambled for their lives. At 1200m Shinji and his father, Fukuichi, miraculously survived the initial blast, but a devastating long journey awaited them. When their paths diverged, Shinji had to survive on his own as a teen. This documentary unveils the inspirational true story of Shinji’s journey of survival and forgiveness. His daughter Akiko sends his peace message through this documentary to the world, so “Nobody else would suffer from nuclear wars.”
