Endo

The time is the early Showa era. Italian Maraini and his family, who came to Japan as a scholar in an era when you could hear the footsteps of military boots, had a good relationship with the Japanese people around them and had a peaceful time. However, one day it suddenly came to an end. Due to changes in the political situation in Japan and Italy, they suddenly became prisoners of war as "enemies." What did they really want to protect in the absurdity that befalls them in a foreign land? The story of a real family who was swallowed by the great swell of the times and still tried to resist their fate.
