    A life-changing documentary

    This film has inspired me to become a more globally-minded and peace-minded citizen. Mr Mori, the A-bomb survivor featured in the film, is one of those rare human beings who has been able to look past the horrors he experienced in war and see the human beings on the other side of the battle. Definitely recommend, especially for young people and students!
