Emperor

After the war was won, the battle for peace began.

A contemplative historical drama about duty, mercy, and personal longing set against the moral reckoning of post-war Japan.

As the Japanese surrender at the end of WWII, Gen. Fellers is tasked with deciding if Emperor Hirohito will be hanged as a war criminal. Influencing his ruling is his quest to find Aya, an exchange student he met years earlier in the U.S.
