Movie Plot
It is the 8th of August, 1945 in Nagasaki. A young couple, Yae and Shoji, are getting married. At the wedding, Yae’s sister starts suffering birth pangs and gives birth to a baby boy. Yae’s friend, Aya, is also pregnant but has been abandoned by her lover. On this seemingly ordinary day, everyone is going through their daily motions.  Little do they know that tomorrow, their lives will be changed forever because, the next day is the day that the atomic bomb was dropped on Nagasaki.

Musical Memory
The movie "Tomorrow" reminds me of an heart-warming song performed by American country music artist Garth Brooks. The Song was written by Garth Brooks and Kent Blazy. Close your eyes and listen to this beautiful song.
