Sadako Sasaki växer upp i Hiroshima i Japan. När hon är två år släpps en atombomb över staden. De som inte dör på en gång utsätts under resten av sina liv för den osynliga men dödliga strålningen som bomben för med sig. Sadako blir så småningom en livlig, atletisk flicka och hon är den stora stjärnan i skolans löparteam. Tills yrselanfallen börjar. Sadako har drabbats av atombombssjukan - leukemi.

Enligt en japansk legend kan den som viker tusen tranor av papper få en önskan uppfylld. Tillsammans med sina klasskamrater sätter Sadako igång att vika. Detta blir hennes livs viktigaste lopp ett lopp mot tiden.

Berättelsen om Sadako är baserad på en verklig händelse. Du kan besöka Barnens Fredsmonument i Fredsparken i Hiroshima. Där, på toppen av ett paradisberg, står en staty av Sadako som med utsträckta händer lyfter en trana mot skyn. Nedanför monumentet kan man läsa: Detta är vårt rop, detta är vår bön; fred i världen.
