:56:35
Yes, Mother?
:56:37
Your father, sister,
and brother...
:56:39
they've all been taken away
from us, haven't they?
:56:42
That's right.
All of them are dead, Mother.
:56:51
What's the matter, mister?
Why are you crying?
:56:54
The emperor announced it
on the radio just now.
:56:58
Japan has been defeated.
:57:01
We've lost the war.
We've surrendered.
:57:04
Tell me, why now?
Why not before?
:57:13
It's all right.
Come on, Mother, cheer up.
:57:15
We're going to be OK. Trust me.
:57:18
I've already started planning
what to do.
:57:21
And I know the first thing
we're going to need... a house.
:57:25
August 15, 1945.
:57:29
Japan officially surrenders
to the Allied powers.
:57:36
Don't cry, Tomoko.
Hush now, hush.
:57:39
I still don't have
enough milk for her.
:57:42
We'll have to find some for her.
:57:44
She needs milk,
not this rice soup.
:57:46
I never thought it possible...
:57:48
but we're running out
of rice, too.
:57:52
Come and eat now.
Hand her to me.
:57:57
If I could only find some kind
of work, but it's hopeless.
:57:59
We're in quite a fix.
