Toshiko, former pupil: [Takako is visiting her in a church, where she lies critically ill with radiation sickness] Ah, Teacher.
Takako Ishikawa: You still remember me.
Toshiko, former pupil: I didn't at first but it came to me.
Takako Ishikawa: Have you live here all this time?
Toshiko, former pupil: Yes, for six years. The priest saved me the day of the bomb. I've been here ever since.
Takako Ishikawa: And your mother and father?
Toshiko, former pupil: Everyone was killed. And I decided to stay here. Here I can say prayers for them. I ask God to grant us peace forever.
Takako Ishikawa: That is a very good thing to do.
Toshiko, former pupil: Now I understand that war is the greatest evil. War is hell.
Toshiko, former pupil: [continues] Teacher, will you sing for me?
Takako Ishikawa: What shall I sing?
Toshiko, former pupil: The one you always sang at lunch. About the red ship.
Takako Ishikawa: You remember very well!
Toshiko, former pupil: I want to hear it just once more.
Takako Ishikawa: Alright, then...
Takako Ishikawa: [starts to sing] Dear Mother, go to sleep and don't cry. Father will come home tomorrow in a red boat.
Toshiko, former pupil: Is it nice on your island?
Takako Ishikawa: Beautiful. I wish you could visit me. The sun rises out of the eastern sea, and sets in the west.
Toshiko, former pupil: I'd love to, but I don't think I will. I'm going to die. But I don't mind because I'll go and join my mother and father.
[turns away, folds her hands on her chest in prayer]

An excellent, powerful movie

Largely overlooked today, this was one of the first films made during the Allied occupation after WW2.

Very powerful in its content, it shows the devastation caused by the Atomic bomb, and by use of a fictional storyline, portrays the struggle of the ordinary Japanese people in dealing with the aftermath.

I last saw this film in 1976 and it is still vivid in my memory.
