The painter Shikoku Goro, known for his illustrations in the picture book “Okorijizo,” was drafted in World War II, experienced internment in Siberia after fighting against the Soviet army in former Manchuria, learned that his younger brother Hisato died due to the atomic bomb after being discharged, and continued to express his anger against the war and his thoughts about non-war with his own pictures and words. It's a one-man play where Zhao Bo sings and talks about “The Giant Pagi Yan Sings by Naniwa” while interlacing that work with the diary left by his younger brother Hisato.
