In This
Corner of the World was set in 1944 at the height of the Second World War, the
movie depicts a different side of the
world war far from the usual setup and story In This Corner of the
World tells the story on the perspective of the Japanese.
We usually
see the struggles of many people in the westernized point of view, but this
time we are seeing stories of struggles and different kinds of pain from the point
of view of the Japanese that we don’t usually see in movies.
The movie
might be animated and in Nihongo, but you can still feel the emotions of every
character in every scene. It will bring you closer to what is it like to be in
a war zone, what's it like is to be in the darkest days of that era, it will
reconnect you to that dark past and will make you realize how important peace
is in each and every one today.
In This Corner of the World teaches you that no matter how dark the night is, there will always be a bright tomorrow for all of us, never lose hope, have courage, and don't give up.
