Tomiko lives in a declining fishing village and waits for the return of her husband, who disappeared 30 years ago. One day, she meets Nami, whose husband has also disappeared. Nami asks for Tomiko's help to get her husband on the list of Special Missing Persons, but by the time the paperwork is ready, Nami wants to forget her husband and make a fresh start.

Asian Movie Pulse

Through an approach that winks at Hirokazu Koreeda, Kubota presents a film that is bound to have a good festival run, despite featuring almost every issue of contemporary Japanese cinema, particularly due to its script, cinematography, and acting.

Rated: 6.5
