Rhapsody in August

Tears. Laughter. Innocence. It was a summer of remembering.

A tender, multigenerational meditation on trauma, memory, and reconciliation set against the shadow of Nagasaki, where a grandmother's summer with her grandchildren becomes a journey toward healing and understanding.

An elderly Nagasaki hibakusha spends a summer caring for her four grandchildren, whose curiosity about the 1945 bombing stirs buried memories and moral questions. When an American nephew from Hawaii visits, the family confronts grief, guilt, and the possibility of reconciliation across generations.
