This moving and powerful story focuses on two survivors of the 1945 atomic bomb attack on Hiroshima. They are among a small group of Japanese who risk social ostracism in their country by identifying themselves as hibakusha--survivors of the atomic bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The film follows them on their mission to New York as representatives of the Japanese Peace Movement at the second United Nations Special Session on Disarmament held in June, 1982.
