Death, love, commitment...the movie treats those question in a very human rhythm, and surprises you in its deepness. I was moved to tears.
It's set in a paradisaical coast of a Japanase island, full of light and sea. The actors are impressively true and beautiful.
Japanase music being played and sang was a real plus too. The few scenes happening in Tokyo were a really good reflection to appreciate better the lifestyle in that countryside.
the last third of the movie was maybe a little bit slow to reveal itself, but it saved some great scenes and was matching the rest of it.
It's also socially and culturally very enriching and interesting. Leaves you with true surprises about the way these kids behave towards losing someone, towards relationships, etc.
