What happens

Mobile Suit Gundam: Cucuruz Doan's Island (Japanese: 機動戦士ガンダム ククルス・ドアンの島, Hepburn: Kidō Senshi Gundamu: Kukurusu Doan no Shima) is a Japanese mecha animated film directed by Yoshikazu Yasuhiko. The film is based on the fifteenth episode of the television series Mobile Suit Gundam—an installment notorious for its poor quality due to complete outsourcing and the director's (Yasuhiko's) hospitalization—leading Yasuhiko to consider it deserving of a proper remake. Set during the One Year War, the story centers on Amuro Ray piloting the Gundam alongside the crew of the White Base, as they are tasked with locating Zeon stragglers on a remote island. The film premiered in Japan on June 3, 2022. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
