A Cannes Film Festival award winner in 1988, Black Rain is an unforgettable film about humanity and survival after the 1945 atomic catastrophe that changed the world forever. Stunning photography vividly details the horror of ravaged Hiroshima, while its shocked survivors struggle with radiation sickness as they rebuild their shattered lives. Unlike other movies about the bomb, Black Rain is both graphic and touching as you see those who escaped death cope with their haunting memories five years after the was has ended. It is a powerful and chilling movie, already considered to be a modern masterpiece from one of Japan's greatest directors.
