About

After a fishing boat is attacked, the sole surviving crew member realizes it is none other than a resurrected Godzilla. However, efforts to bring the story to light are suppressed by the Japanese government amid growing political tensions between the United States and the Soviet Union, who are both willing to bomb Japan to stop the monster.
Keiju Kobayashi struggles to expose the truth of a resurrected monster while the government weighs national security against a looming nuclear catastrophe. This Cold War era revival swaps campy fun for a heavy, suffocating atmosphere of political paranoia and dread.
