Gunki Hatameku Motoni plot
The story revolves around the widow of a Army officer, who was sentenced to death for desertion towards the end of World War II, and her charges against the decision of the Ministry of Welfare to withhold her pension as a war widow. In 1971, she visits four veterans from her husband's old regiment to find out the true circumstances of his death. Her conversations reveal the atrocities of the last days at the front, such as the mutual massacres, cannibalism and the murder of officers.
