Noriko is a young, single, professional woman who lives with her father. She is encouraged by him and her friends to marry but has yet—or is unwilling—to find someone suitable. So, to prompt her to take her suitors seriously, her father pretends he is considering a new marriage.
Profoundly moving, this gorgeous and unparalleled classic from Yasujirō Ozu transcends its father-daughter drama to find a universal, and always inevitable tension between tradition and modernity. An absolute and indubitable masterpiece—as well as Ozu’s first film (of six!) with star Setsuko Hara.
