Entering an arranged marriage at the age of 18, quiet, artistic Suzu moves from sleepy Hiroshima to the port city of Kobe.
As she adapts to a new way of life, the privations and dangers of the Second World War gradually creep closer to home.
This beautifully animated drama movingly explores family life in a corner of the world that was in some ways similar and in other ways very different to our own.
Here is a link to an analytical Review in The Telegraph written at the time of the film’s premiere at the Tokyo Film Festival.
