The Japanese government included footage used in ``Memories of Hiroshima'' (shot by Nippon Eigasha).
We have decided to recommend the photographs and videos of Hiroshima after the atomic bombing to UNESCO's Memory of the World.

September to October 1945, after the atomic bomb was dropped on Hiroshima. The scorched earth landscape and suffering A-bomb survivors were photographed by Japanese people. Nippon Eigasha's film shows people receiving treatment, doctors and nurses, burned-out buildings, and towns buried in rubble. This film was made into a film called ``The Effects of the Atomic Bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki'' in 1946, but it was sent to the United States without being released. Meanwhile, the unedited film of this movie was secretly stored in a photo lab in Tokyo by Nippon Eigasha's production staff. Later, in 1993, the existence of a total of 15 films was confirmed in the warehouse of Nippon Eiga Shinsha (Nihon Eiga Shinsha was reorganized after the war) in Tokyo, and they became public.

At the RCC, images captured on existing unedited film are compared with the current location.
Hiroshima immediately after the atomic bombing and now at the time of broadcast (2004-2005),
A total of 52 three-and-a-half minute programs that bring back memories of war and peace or those days.I made it.
