Synopsis:
Sadako's Cranes is the story of the girl on the Hiroshima Peace Park Children's Monument. It is the story of Sadako Sazaki, who was eight years old when the atom bomb was dropped on Hiroshima. In the hospital, suffering from radiation poisoning, the "atom bomb disease," she tried to fold one thousand paper origami cranes, a Japanese wish for good luck. Sadako died before completing all her cranes but her school friends folded the rest and she was buried with 1,000. A golden statue of Sadako stands atop the children's monument in Hiroshima and each year school children bring thousands of cranes to place at the monument in remembrance.
