The Dawning Sky

A sweet little tearful melodrama from Japan at the end of the 1920s. Don't know much about the people involved, but they do a nice job with this. A widow has to abandon her new born child forced on by the grandfather. The old man tells the kid her mother is dead and raise her himself. Many years later their paths cross again when the mother becomes the priest in the little village where they have since settled, and it slowly dawns on them the blood ties they have. Simple little story, but sweet.

This was a very sweet and heartwarming little drama. Fairly straightforward and it goes along at a decent pace. the narrator was excellent.
