On August 6, 1945, Tsutomu Yamaguchi was working in Hiroshima when the first atomic bomb exploded over the city. Injured, the man returns home... to Nagasaki. 3 days later, the second nuclear bomb reduces the city to dust. A miraculous survivor of two atomic bombs, Tsutomu Yamaguchi remained silent for more than half a century before telling his story and becoming a fervent activist against atomic weapons.
