Somewhere in Japan as the 20th century is nearing its end, an ageing woman confides in her granddaughter and her story is almost incredible. She tells of a forbidden love; of family secrets handed down through generations; of unspeakable, hidden, and tortuous parentage; of passion, murder, and intertwined destinies. It’s also the history of Japan with its untold cruelty; its wars and tragedies; the deep scars left by the atom bombs in the landscape, the bodies, and the surviving souls. Tsubaki: The day the atomic bomb is dropped on Nagasaki, Yukiko Horibe discovers the truth about her father and her neighbour Yukio, her youthful love.
