The film is based on the true story of Swiss doctor Dr Marcel Junod, who was sent to Japan as a senior representative of the Red Cross immediately after the atomic bomb was dropped. He approached the GHQ – the headquarters of the Allied forces in Japan – with a request to provide medical supplies for Hiroshima.

The film impressively conveys the situation of the people who suffered from the consequences of the atomic bomb at that time and shows Dr. Junod's contribution to world peace through his work with the Red Cross.
