The plane crashes in the ocean and the boy is rescued by a fishing family. The family's boy Hiko is able to speak some English. Upon arriving home, the parents go to alert the police. Hiko fears that Tony is going to jail and the two boys run away.
This should cut back on some of the parents' scenes and add more with the kids. It's basically a Disney movie in exotic Japan. That part is a lot of fun and very cute. It is indeed an escapade in Japan. This is a good look into post-war everyday Japan. The parents part does have some good emotions but it threatens to be too melodramatic at times. The kids part is the best. The climax is a bit scary. This is a fun exotic escapade.
