Description:
Five short stories of life's joys and sorrows are brought together in this omnibus drama film. "The World Is Sometimes Beautiful" Noeda is 38 years old and has lived in Tokyo for 19 years. For 11 years now, she has been working as a nude model for a painting class. She fell ill late last year, and as her body started withering away towards death, she accepted it. She began to feel herself becoming more modest about her life. And she felt that her work as a model didn't create anything. However, when Noeda sees a picture of herself as a model in her cafe, she happily recalls what the painter said to her: "You made me draw it." "Barfly" Osaka is a middle-aged man who went drinking from bar to bar almost every day, and before he knew it, he had drunk himself into homelessness. Everyday, he quickly cleanses himself in a public bath and goes out into the city every night, hurting his mind, body and wallet. To fill his sadness, he ends the night drinking again. One night, he sat down by a construction site with another man who told him: "If you close your eyes and lose consciousness, it will be tomorrow." Morning will come again. "Her Favorite Loneliness" Mayumi is lying naked on the bed in her room with her lover Kunio after making love. The two exchange rambling conversations, but somehow they don't get along. "Do I like him?" she wonders to herself, and she ponders on an old stone carving in an Indian temple that she once saw somewhere of the words of an old philosopher: "A tree in the forest is you. Find it." "Snufkin Liberty" While riding a streetcar in a northern town, Shuichi Hiiragi remembers the comet he saw when he was a child. It was an event that sparked his interest in outer space, which led him to his current work at an observatory. "In my heart, I feel like my strong interest in space and the uneasy feeling of not being able to find the coordinates of home are connected" Hiiragi and his girlfriend are on uncertain terms at the moment, as his girlfriend Tomoko became pregnant as a result of contraceptive failure and Hiiragi who does not wish to become a father. "Some Reasons to Live" Hananoko lives alone and works at a travel agency. Her mother, Shizue, has recently found work at a flower shop nearby her childhood home, where she lives alone. Today Hananoko is visiting her late father's grave with her mother, Shizue, and her brother, Daisuke. After visiting the grave, the three sit around the dining table at home, but Hanako has to leave early as she has to report to her job the next day. As she leaves, she worries about her mother's loneliness and old age. She thinks to herself: "I don't know anything about her mother."
