There is now just a single evacuation zone, coloured in blue, replacing the earlier red, orange and yellow zones.
The maps have changed considerably. For example, my home was previously in the yellow zone but is now no longer at risk, due to updated data and tsunami wave models.
Let's familiarise ourselves with the revised zones and maps, and update our emergency plans accordingly.

Italy, subtitles, 2023, Dramatic comedy
Delia lives in Rome in the late 1940s in a working-class community which is slowly but surely rebuilding itself after the war. She shares a small flat with her domineering husband, their three children and her sick father-in-law.
Delia resolutely deals with the daily challenges of family life and has a best friend with whom she shares moments of levity. Delia’s dream though is for her daughter, Marcella to one day have a better life than she does. Delia is resigned to her fate - the good with the bad - until one day a mysterious letter arrives.
"An inspiring story that delights in small victories and the dream of female empowerment." - Screen International
