Presenting a poignant recreation of the Pearl Harbor attack, this film meticulously portrays the events that unfolded in the days leading up to that fateful and tragic moment in American history. Against the backdrop of escalating tensions between the United States and Japan, fueled by a U.S. embargo on crucial resources, Air Staff Officer Minoru Genda (Tatsuya Mihashi) orchestrates the strategic plans for a preemptive strike against the United States.

While American intelligence agencies intercept Japanese communications that allude to the impending attack, disbelief and skepticism prevent them from fully comprehending the gravity of the situation. The narrative captures the mounting suspense and complexities as it delves into the intricate web of decisions and actions that culminated in the devastating assault on U.S. soil.
