Le jour le plus long du Japon

L’histoire

Après la détonation des bombes atomiques sur Hiroshima et Nagasaki, l'armée japonaise et le gouvernement se sont opposés à la demande des Alliés de se rendre sans condition. Le ministre de l'armée Anami conduit les officiers militaires qui se proposent de se battre, même à la mort de tous les citoyens japonais. L'empereur Hirohito, cependant, se joint à ses ministres pour demander l'impensable, la reddition pacifique du Japon. Lorsque les militaires complotent pour renverser le gouvernement civil de l'Empereur, Anami doit faire face au choix entre ses désirs et sa loyauté envers son Empereur.
