In 1945, six-year-old Kinuko lives with her frail mother in Osaka during the final months of World War II. As the bombings intensify, her mother struggles to protect her and the neighborhood children despite her own failing health.

When the air raids grow relentless, Kinuko's mother makes a desperate sacrifice to save her daughter and the other children from the destruction.
