Synopsis
Urano Suzu is an innocent young woman who loves to draw pictures and lives in the seaside town called Eba district of Hiroshima. At the height of World War II in the Pacific with all the men off at the front, she finds herself as eldest daughter assisting with the family business of seaweed to make ends meet when an offer of marriage arises. The suitor is Hojo Shusaku, a young stenographer at the military court-martial who had fallen in love with her at first sight, but Suzu doesn't remember ever having met him. Though uncomfortable with the idea of betrothing a man she doesn't know, she gets swept along by the people and circumstances around her until marriage becomes a foregone conclusion. She finds the task of winning acceptance by Shusaku's family hard going despite all of her pure and earnest efforts in this touching story of family love and survival amid the crucible of war. -- TBS
