As resources vanish, Seita resorts to stealing from farmers during air raids. Setsuko develops a rash from malnutrition (commonly identified as kwashiorkor). She begins to hallucinate, playing with rocks she calls "rice balls." The final act is a silent, brutal watch as Seita desperately tries to boil eggs and make food for a sister who can no longer eat. The film ends—spoiler warning for a 36-year-old film—with Setsuko’s death and Seita’s subsequent demise in a train station.
