No

Sugihara obeys his authorities and does not issue visas.

Japan has made it clear that visas cannot be issued. Those people applying for visas, even if they would be able to get to Japan - there are thousands of them, how to accommodate so many people, how to feed them? Besides, the new Soviet government made it absolutely clear that the consulate should be closed in August and the staff should leave the country. It’s the end of July, a couple of weeks left before the consulate is closed. Embassies of other countries have been closed long ago, their diplomats have left. Time to pack up and think about future. Chiune is responsible not only for himself but also for three young children, one of them just a baby, he is responsible for his wife and his wife’s sister. How will he feed such a large family if he loses his job? And so Sugihara stops looking out the window, forbids his family and staff to go outside, tries not to think about those men praying for mercy by the gate, their hungry children and mothers barely standing on their feet in grief. He tries not to hear what’s going on outside, so he plays the “Maiden’s Prayer” as loud as possible.
