Drama
Rhapsody in August.
Tears. Laughter. Innocence. It was a summer of remembering.
An elderly Nagasaki hibakusha spends a summer caring for her four grandchildren, whose curiosity about the 1945 bombing stirs buried memories and moral questions. When an American nephew from Hawaii visits, the family confronts grief, guilt, and the possibility of reconciliation across generations.
Directed by Akira Kurosawa
