Italian sales agent Intramovies has acquired worldwide sales rights to Japanese film “Children Untold” (“Watashi no Shiranai Kodomotachi”), a WWII historical drama written and directed by Nishikawa Miwa and produced by Koide Daiju for Japan’s K2 Pictures.

Set in Tokyo during the final days and immediate aftermath of the Second World War, the film follows a 12-year-old orphaned girl, the daughter of musicians, who disguises herself as a boy in order to survive the underworld, while her former teacher – burdened by guilt and her own need to survive – retraces her path.
