Till We Meet Again

There are no queer narratives or non-cisgender identities in the film, which is set in the 1950s.

Keiko shows strength and emotional depth while dealing with wartime losses, but the film upholds traditional gender roles of protectors and nurturers.

The film features a homogeneous Japanese cast and focuses on a domestic story, avoiding the Western perspective common in mid-century films.

The story looks at national identity during post-war reconstruction and the tension between individual trauma and societal reintegration.

The film does not include characters with disabilities and focuses on the universal experience of wartime trauma.
