When Aiko was in her third year of junior high school, she wrote her thoughts on “peace” based on her experience of visiting the Peace Park in Hiroshima City.
After the screening, the family talked to the non-professional director and director, and the Emperor said, “It was a work that felt during the war,” and Aiko said, “I understood the old Hiroshima. I was impressed. ”
A donation box will be set up at the venue, and the funds raised will be used for the activities of the Hiroshima Prefectural Branch of the Japanese Red Cross Society.
