One Morning Like a Bird

Tokyo, 1940. While Japan`s war against China escalates, young Yuji Takano clings to his cocooned life: his beloved evenings of French conversation at Monsieur Feneon`s, visits to the bathhouse with friends, his books, his poetry.But conscription looms and the mood turns against foreigners, just when Yuji gets entangled with Feneon`s daughter. As the nation heads towards conflict with the Allies, Yuji must decide where his duty — and his heart — lies.
