Synopsis - A powerful statement against war, Barefoot Gen is a story about the
effect of the atomic bomb on a boy's life and the lives of the Japanese
people.
Gen and his family are living in Hiroshima as Japan nears the end of
World War II. Gen's father has come to believe that the war is
unwinnable, thus earning the wrath of the town officials and, in turn,
discrimination from the rest of their neighbors. Shunned by the local
merchants and tradesmen, food becomes scarce for Gen and his family. All
these concerns soon pale, however, as the American military begins its
final assault on Japan with the unleashing of its terrible new weapon.
