Details

The lives of three college students begin a slow but monumental change in the years leading up to World War II. In 1933, students Yuki Yagihara, Ryukichi Noge and Itokawa are blissfully enveloped with freedom and peace. Things begin to unravel as the Japanese government starts threatening consequences to those opposing the oncoming war effort. Five years later, Yukie, having lost her sense of place in life, moves to Tokyo. Once there she re-encounters the two men, one of whom now has a secretive double life.
