About the film:

With evacuees from Side 7 onboard, the White Base crosses the Pacific Ocean and heads west towards the continent of Eurasia. Amidst that journey filled with battle, Amuro has a fight with Bright and runs away, suffering from the deaths of Matilda, who he had feelings for, and Ryu, who was like a big brother to him. The White Base lands at the Belfast base in Ireland. It’s then that Char appears, having stepped back from the front lines. With that, Amuro and Char end up clashing in the battle surrounding the Earth Federation Headquarters of Jaburo.

About the filmmakers:

Yoshiyuki Tomino, winner of Tokyo Anime’s Lifetime Achievement Award in 2021, created the Mobile Suit Gundam franchise. Ryôji Fujiwara is known for Mobile Suit Gundam I (1981), Mobile Suit Gundam (1979) and Xabungle (1982). The Gundam series is famous for revolutionizing the giant robot genre due to the handling of mobile suits as weapons of war, as well as the portrayal of their pilots as ordinary soldiers. The first Gundam series, which has subsequently been adapted into numerous sequels and spin-offs, was re-edited for theatrical release and split into three films in 1981.
