HERO’S ISLAND

Set in 1952 Okinawa under U.S. occupation, HERO’S ISLAND follows childhood friends Gusuku, Yamako, and Rei—former rebels who once raided American bases under the leadership of the charismatic On, who vanished after a fateful heist. Years later, a violent incident and a U.S. hunt for the mysterious “prize” he stole draw them back together. Directed by Keishi Otomo and based on Junjo Shindo’s Naoki Prize–winning novel, this sweeping epic stars Satoshi Tsumabuki, Suzu Hirose, Masataka Kubota, and Eita Nagayama.
