Where We Call Home - Season 2 - Eps 16: A Messenger for Peace
On this episode, we visit Hiroshima to meet Mary Popeo from the US. She works there as a "Peace Guide," teaching visitors from abroad about the atomic bombing on Hiroshima, and relating the experiences of the survivors, also called "hibakusha." One of them, Ito Masao, has been encouraging Mary in her mission to raise awareness on the tragedy of the bombing. We also tag along Mongolian-native Selenge Luvsanchimed for a day in her work as a bag designer in Tokyo.
