Two men conspire to hold a secret art exhibition—under the shadow of war. Kyoto, 1944. In a time when freedom of expression is stifled under the Pacific War, two men—Minoru Unohara and Masaki Tatsumi—meet by fate. Though burdened with their own inner scars, they join forces to plan a clandestine art exhibition, risking everything for the sake of creativity and resistance. From the author of “If I’m Going to Die Someday, Let Me Sell My Art First,” this is a bold and heartfelt tale. In a nation that stands as both the only country to suffer nuclear attack and as an aggressor during the war in Asia, this story compels us—80 years later—to once again confront the reality of “that war.”
