I was gripped
In 1959 a French actress, in Hiroshima for an anti-war film, has what she thinks will be a one-night stand with a Japanese man but it leads her into revisiting and re-evaluating the loss she feels from her very first relationship - with a German soldier of the occupying forces in France.

In black and white with an almost noir-ish look, you will love this if development of character interests you. If you want an obvious storyline, you will be disappointed. I was gripped.

Documentary or movie?
Slow, at the beginning, the plot is often lost for a documentary on Hiroshima slaughter. Then when you would like to know more about it, almost seeing it, with a sense of sadism and cynic, the powerful images completely disappear. Did it happen or not? Where they true or false shots?
When the story finally emerges, the movie ends leaving with a feeling of incompletion.
Would not watch twice.

Hard to watch
When I was at university, we were required to watch this film three times. The first time, I nearly fainted and had to leave. The second time, I had to leave early. I did not even attempt to watch it a third time. It was incredibly powerful. The images of Hiroshima were horrific.
