Don't watch this film. 1/5. I hardly sleep in movies, but I slept through this and many others did too. Its a woman's show, where the lives of 3 generations of the family are featured. From the younger days of an old lady to the daughter that died after giving birth to the 2nd grand daughter and the lives of the two grand daughters.. Its really slow moving and artistic Japanese movie. Many silent portions, perfect for sleeping especially after a full dinner. However, interestingly there are still some people that life it. Mainly girls or ladies. So, girls please don't force your guys to watch with you. He'll totally curse you for doing that.
If you really do watch, there are some touching scenes at the end. It portrays the general culture of asian fathers, having a stern, unchanging look even when the daughter apologies for running away from an arranged marriage by her parents. But the seemingly heartless father let off his joy to see his daughter return by screaming rejoice to the wedding attendees. The movie moves from one scene to another, not finishing the previous one and coming back again to continue from what happened. It shows the joy of a mother and her child and also the difficulty for a woman to fall in love again at an older age whom already had gone through some tragic experience of the death of her deceased boyfriend.
