About This Movie

Okasare shigan is an intriguing 1982 drama that captures the loneliness of its protagonist, an interior designer caught in a web of complicated relationships. The film presents a very specific atmosphere—tinged with melancholy and a sort of existential dread. You’ve got her overworked boyfriend, who seems perpetually tired, and then there's the older man with a mistress—definitely adds some tension. The boss, handsome as he is, brings another layer of complexity. The pacing is reflective, allowing you to really sit with her choices, her internal conflict. Performances are subtle, a bit raw, which elevates the emotional stakes. It’s not flashy, but its distinctiveness lies in how it explores human connection in a detached world.
