There is no hope!

I just finished watching this movie, and it was very heart-touching, and it made me think. The plot was a simple story about victims of the Hiroshima atomic explosion. Scenes are disturbing based on the context, and I think Shohei Imamura pictured the devastating suffering of people who experienced the atomic bombing in the best artistic way he could. All staff played their roles aesthetically, and I loved the last scene when the lead character said, “If rainbows showed up, it could be a miracle,” but the irony was the movie was in black and white, and even if rainbows showed up, you couldn’t see them.
