In This Corner of the World
Sunao Katabuchi · 2016
Co-produced with Korean animation studios, this work renders Hiroshima's prelude through domestic detail — a young wife sketching the harbor, mending kimono, losing a hand to ordinance — until the bomb arrives as the logical extension of a thousand small erosions. Like Mori, Katabuchi locates historical horror inside the texture of an ordinary day refusing to end.
