6/6 ”Touching” – Nöjesguiden

Theater director and actor Yasuke Kafuku (Hidetoshi Nishijima) has been in a passionate relationship with his wife for 20 years, screenwriter Oto(Reika Krishima). They bounce ideas off each other when they make love and during car trips. For the couple, their vehicle is a stage and not just a means of transportation. But even seemingly harmonious relationships can have unexpected complications. These and other unexpected, unwanted twists and turns in life are the springboard forRyusuke Hamaguchi's latest contemplative and gently emotional road movie. Based on a short story by Haruki Murakami, Hamaguchi has written an award-winning screenplay together with Takamasa Oe. Murakami's terse, precise story of less than 40 pages has inspired a rich cinematic journey that takes its time and delivers strong emotions through small gestures.A life-affirming celebration of life” – Göteborgsposten
