- Synopsis:
In 2016 Nobuhiko Obayashi, director of the cult film 'House' was diagnosed with lung cancer and given only a few months to live. With not much time left he realised his ultimate passion project, adapting Kazuo Dan's novella 'Hanagatami', which he had originally planned as his debut film! Obayashi returns us to 1941, a pivotal time for Japan, as the unstoppable momentum of war forcibly seized the lives of youth away to battlefields where they disappeared forever. Forty years in the making, Nobuhiko Obayashi's boundary-breaking, tradition-al-yet-experimental film celebrates the clamorous heart of youth and the indomitable will to live. The culmination of his life as a filmmaker now explodes in "Hanagatami", drawing us to journey beyond time and imagination. - Actors:
