This film was very touching for me.I think this film is somewhat similar to Elvira Madigan (1967), in the sense that it has simple plot and slow pace-so it could be a little boring for some audiences-but expressed the deep emotion of characters very well through beautiful cinematography. If you liked Elvira Madigan's tragic and powerful love story that was expressed by the impressionist-paintings-like cinematography, I think, you would also like the beautiful art-photos-like scenes of this film.Not only the cinematography but the surprising reversal in the latter part of the film and the lead actress, Aoi Yu's outstanding performance that expressed the sensibility and the deep emotion of a lonely Okinawan girl who was desperately missing her mother who had left for Tokyo also make up well for the weak point of this film-the simple plot and the slow pace and even let audiences shed tears. Aoi Yu's wonderful performance is taking a really big part of this film's beauty, so when this film was introduced to Korea, the original Japanese title was translated into "Aoi Yu's letter" This film is a tear-jerking sad story. However, unlike Elvira Madigan whose aftertaste was strongly tragic, its ending is rather heartwarming. The audiences would-if they are fans of this film-discover themselves making happy smile and shedding tears at the same time at the end of this film.
