<Synopsis>

Eighty years after the explosion that erased Hiroshima, a silent journey moves through the shadows left by fire. The voices of the last survivors echo like distant memories, intertwining with the images of a city breathing once again.

The scars of the past shimmer in the water, on the walls, in the everyday gestures of those who still live beneath the same light that once destroyed. The shadow becomes memory — a refuge and a sign of rebirth — where pain turns into prayer and peace takes shape, fragile yet possible, between what remains and what is reborn.
