Chapter 2 Part One

These two people from different countries have very different philosophies, historical backgrounds, economic conditions and races, but Hiroshima is their common place (perhaps the only place in the world?).There, sexual desire, love, misfortune, these universal human things are vividly expressed.Falsehood is tolerated anywhere but Hiroshima.This is not the case in Hiroshima, where "false" cannot hide and is rejected. In the haze of sleep, they were still talking about Hiroshima.use different ways.They are lustful, perhaps harboring an unwitting love. Their conversations involve themselves as much as Hiroshima.Their topics intersected and criss-crossed each other so that, from then on, after the operatic dialogue about Hiroshima, the monolithic topics have been indistinguishable.

As brief as their individual stories are, they always prevail over Hiroshima's. If this premise is not adhered to, then this film can only be another "obedience" film, which is dull and tasteless, but a novelized documentary.If this premise is maintained, it will produce a similarly fabricated documentary, but it will be more convincing in drawing the historical lessons of Hiroshima than ordinary news documentaries. They woke up.They talked again while she was dressing.They talked about this and that, and also about Hiroshima.why not?This is natural.We are in Hiroshima. Suddenly, she appeared in front of her wearing a Red Cross nurse uniform.

Seeing her dressed like a uniform of traditional virtues, he longed for her again.He wishes to see her again.He was like all men, indeed, like all men.There is an erotic element to this prim and proper attire that appeals to all men. (The Eternal Nurse in an Eternal War...) Why, then, did she need him just as much, yet not want to see him again?She didn't give a clear reason. After waking up, they also talked about her past. What happened in Nevers, her hometown, in the Nèvres department where she grew up?What had happened in her life to make her the way she was: bohemian and reserved, honest and dishonest, ambiguous and clear?Why are you so eager to experience a chance encounter?But why is he so cowardly and timid in the face of love?

She told him that one day she had gone mad in Nevel.She was mad with ferocity.She related the incident as she related how wise and decisive she had been at Nevers.Exactly the same tone. She didn't say a word about whether the Nevers "incident" explained her present behavior in Hiroshima.She narrates the Nevers "incident" as if she were speaking of something else.Does not explain why. she left.She decided not to see him again. However, they will meet again. Four o'clock in the afternoon.Peace Plaza in Hiroshima (or in front of the hospital). The photographers are leaving the scene (in the film, we always only see them leaving with equipment).Someone was dismantling the grandstands and removing the flying flags.

Frenchwomen (perhaps) sleeping in the shade of the dismantled stands. People just made an instructive film about peace.Far from being a ridiculous movie, it's just another movie.that is it.
