The film depicts an existence that gives unprecedented despair.
Said Yamazaki, “ Postwar Japan has lost everything. Written and directed by Japanese filmmaker Takashi Yamazaki, Godzilla Minus One taps into the grief, hope, trauma, and guilt felt in the world after the tragedies of World War II and the 2019 Covid pandemic, during which the majority of the script was written. During this low point Godzilla marches ashore, pulling Japan even deeper into chaos and devastation. The story follows the failed kamikaze pilot Kiochi ( Ryunosuke Kamiki) and Noriko ( Minami Hamabe), a woman pushed into homelessness, taking care of an abandoned child.
The emotional toll has brought the country to its lowest point. Set in the days after the end of World War II, Japan is reeling from the devastation left behind after the war.
Waxwork Records, in association with Sony Music and Toho, is thrilled to release the complete vinyl score to GODZILLA MINUS ONE by Naoki Sato ! The ultimate kaiju is back and badder than ever in the latest installment of the classic Godzilla franchise. *This item is a pre-order with an expected shipping date in April, 2024*
