[JFF '23] As part of his war trilogy, this film contains some of its director's characteristics, wrapped in a theatrical texture, with imperfect backgrounds and discordant sounds, which construct a fictitious reality, a kind of dreamlike look on adolescence. But developed under the shadow of a war that, in one way or another, will end up trapping them all. A compact and reflective film in which not only the war is present, but also the idea of defeat, a kind of look of incomprehension towards the justification of thousands of deaths to end a humiliation that still remains in Japanese society.
