Honestly, even though it’s a pretty long movie, I absolutely loved it. What really hooked me from the start was its pacing, it’s slow, calm, and undeniably sad, but it has the perfect tempo for a story about a real life tragedy. It doesn't rush at all, which feels incredibly respectful to a historical wound that still hurts today for japan. What I highlight the most is how it handles forced maturity and resilience, it leaves you with so many beautiful and heartwarming messages about keeping our humanity intact. A total gem.
