Kikoku

The narrative unfolds on the anniversary of Japan's surrender in World War II when an unexpected late-night train arrives at Tokyo station. The train carries the spirits of notable figures who died honorably during the war, allowing them to witness their homeland in its current peaceful state.

These spirits aim to convey the realities of modern Japan to the lingering souls of the deceased soldiers. The film features a notable cast, including Maki Horikita, Shun Oguri, and Takeshi Kitano, which adds depth to the storytelling.

Kikoku is available on DVD, making it accessible for collectors interested in historical dramas that reflect on Japan's past.
