Should you spend 1h 50m on it?

1h 50m of Japanese drama, fine for the whole family. Only 2 people have rated it, so treat that 5.0 as an early signal rather than a verdict.

Story

Yoriko, an artist living in rural Nagi, is haunted by a former love affair she cannot bear to mourn. When Yuri, a recently separated architect, travels from Tokyo to visit her friend and former sister-in-law, both women find themselves at a crossroad, each searching for ways to let go of the past and define their identities. Yuri's brief escape from the city settles into a quiet confrontation of loss and probing for the two women in bucolic Nagi.
