Saddest film ever made

Rating: 10/10 (25 June 2018)

This is quite possibly the saddest movie ever made. It is, however, worth seeing once, particularly if you were not involved in your sister's death. I will never watch it again, but I'll set it up for you to run if you stop by some time.
It is about a young brother and sister who are made homeless by allied bombing of Japan in WWII. They are taken in by a relative but with times being hard they leave there to strike out for themselves and for a while they get along all right until things get really bad and they get really hungry. At that time, when there is nothing left to do but steal things turn worse and worse.
The film pulls no punches about the trials of the children. It's rough.
