Title Grave of the Fireflies Spoiler
sorry for the counter review xtremy-chan ^^
but im not the one who put the helpful or not helpful button :)
I know this is a long time after you posted here, but I just stumbled upon this movie and I did make a post in case others made the same mistake you did. This movie doesn't take place during the Cold War, but during World War II. While a timeline of the Cold War would begin in 1945, it is referencing Germany and the Soviet Union after World War II, not Japan. I won't bore you with a lot of details, but you sound moved by this movie and probably interested in learning more about the atrocities committed by Americans and the horrors the Japanese suffered during events like the firebombings.
