Synopsis
A young man Kentaro Saeki (Haruma Miura) keeps failing his bar test and does not know what to do any more. His older sister Keiko is a freelance writer. Kentaro and Keiko begin to search for information on their grandfather Kyuzo Miyabe (Junichi Okada) who died in the special forces during World War II. Their grandfather Kyuzo was terrified of death and obsessed with life. Why did he join the special forces? According to his fellow navy soldiers, Kyuzo was a genius and also a coward. Kentaro and Keiko then discovers the shocking truth which has been sealed for 60 years.

That looks marvelous. Thanks for the heads-up.

Can't find anywhere to watch it yet. I would like to purchase it if anyone has a link.

Get in contact with Chris Brewer, he sells these movies at his kit shows and I do believe he has this one already
