Shadow of the War

In a quiet coastal town in modern-day Japan, a retired nurse's cryptic deathbed confession unearths a wartime atrocity buried for seventy years. A frail old man—once a ruthless military police officer—now lives under a fake name, while the sole survivor, now a reclusive scholar, has spent decades hunting him. When a young journalist stumbles upon a coded journal, the past erupts into the present, forcing both the aging killer and the haunted victim into a final, desperate game of truth and vengeance, where history's weight crushes every step.
