Description

In 2011 a devastating tsunami hit the North-eastern coast of Japan causing a major meltdown at Fukushima - the worst nuclear disaster in the world to date. 16,000 people died that day, and tens of thousands more were displaced - their homes destroyed, their villages contaminated.

Fukushima Dreams is set against the backdrop of this event.

Sachiko lives with her husband and infant son Tashi in a small coastal village.

They are both struggling to adapt to life with their new son.

When Sachiko's village is hit, she awakes to find her family are missing.

After a fruitless search she, like many others, is forced to leave the area due to radiation fallout.

She moves to Tokyo, and a different life. Harry had already planned to leave. He uses the disaster as cover, and flees to a mountain refuge.

He lives there, hovering on the border of sanity and haunted by the spirit of their son.

Winter sets in. Eventually he is forced to return. They must both confront the ghosts of the past.
