A slice of life film. The story revolves around a family living in the countryside around Tokyo. A young girl bored with the futility of life, her older brother falling prey to the pangs of puberty. A slightly neurotic grandfather. A beautifully captured tale about not really anything except the unnoticed moments of life. Each character at a different age and consequently looking for something in their life.
A heart warming piece touching on one's own past that had been stored away in some sunny, smiling corner.
