Summary:
Two years after his wife's unexpected death, Yusuke Kafuku arrives in Hiroshima to direct a production of "Uncle Vanya" for a theater festival and, through relationships with an actor with whom he shares a tangled history and a chauffeur with whom he develops a surprising rapport, finds himself confronting emotional scars. This quietly mesmerizing tale of love, art, grief, and healing is ultimately a cathartic exploration of what it means to go on living when there seems to be no road ahead.
