TOKYO —

Actor Hideaki Ito, 33, and other cast members on Tuesday met the press to introduce their new disaster film “252 – survivor confirmed.” The film takes place in Tokyo where a massive typhoon hits the city. “252” is a communication code used by Tokyo firefighters, meaning “survivors.”

Ito, who plays the role of a rescue worker, said, “I was so moved by the idea of self-sacrifice by rescue workers. During filming, we got dirty with dust and clay. And we suffered a lot of injuries on the set. It was really tough.”

The film will be released on Dec 6 nationwide.
