Adapted from Kono Fumiyo’s award-winning manga, Yunagi no Machi Sakura no Kuni (a.k.a. Yunagi City, Sakura Country) is the story of two young women living in different times, and the unforgettable historical memory that connects them. Director Sasabe Kiyoshi follows up his WWII drama Sea Without Exit with a sensitive portrayal of postwar life under the shadow of the war experience and the atomic bomb. Divided into two sections - “Town of Evening Calm” and “Country of Cherry Blossom” - the film alternates between 1955 Hiroshima and the present-day with Tanaka Rena (Waiting in the Dark) and Hochi Film Award Best Actress Aso Kumiko (Kairo) in the leading roles.

Atomic bomb survivor Hirano Minami (Aso Kumiko) knows all too well life’s bitter brevity. She lost her father and sisters to the bomb and radiation poisoning, and has not seen her brother since he was evacuated years ago. She takes hesitant steps toward first love with her coworker (Yoshizawa Yu, Night of the Shooting Stars), but happiness and normalcy are elusive in the atmosphere of postwar Hiroshima. Decades later, Ishikawa Nanami (Tanaka Rena) travels to Hiroshima to find out the reason by her father’s frequent mysterious trips to the city. There she slowly retraces the story of a young woman whose life has affected hers in more ways than she realized.

    It takes a lot of time to make sub, therefore if the movie does not have a high profile, the sub making process might be much slower, if at all. Just be patient.

Read before asking:
You are encouraged to:
  • - Leave comments with your opinion about the music/film. It will help others to decide which one to download, and also encourage me on uploading.
  • - Rate the films/music using the star system (only AFTER watching/listening to them).
  • - Request using the request link at the top of the page ONLY.
  • - Use the sitemap at the top of the page for list of film/music by category, for example, by country, by actor, by singer, etc.
  • - Use the search box right above this comment to find what you want.
  • - Navigate the site using Firefox.

What not to:
  • - Ask me to upload to other services: I do understand that some of you might have problems downloading from megaupload, but you should also understand that I might have problems uploading using other services. With the sheer volume of files that I upload everyday, 1) mega-manager is the only reliable uploading software, 2) megaupload is the only one which allows big enough size, 3) megaupload is the one that keeps the files alive the longest. For files smaller than 100MB, I've been using sharebee, which creates links to multiple services., and that is the biggest improvement i've seen in 2,3 years. I'm open to suggestions, but if your only comment is "please use other services because megaupload sux in my country", then don't bother.
  • - Steal my contents: Please respect the amount of time that I spent on this blog (a lot). So ask me for permission if you want to post any of the materials elsewhere, with the link to my blog.
