Globe Theatre: Red Flower

on BBC Two England

Starring Momoko Sawai
A cartoonist begins to draw an image from the past. Haunted by the memory of his younger sister drowned on the night of the bombing of Tokyo, he suddenly finds himself once more running down railway tracks, along a river, down an alley and into a strange series of surreal worlds in which his sister comes to life as a budding young woman.
The works of cartoonist Yoshiharu Tsuge are re-created on film in this award-winning Japanese drama.
Directed by Shoichiro Sasaki for Japan Broadcasting Corporation
