About This Movie

Fumio, our timid businessman in the ski wear industry, has a genuine charm that pulls you in. His interactions with Yu, the sweet but complex secretary, are where the film really shines, capturing that awkwardness of falling for someone. The pacing has this laid-back vibe, with moments where the quiet awkwardness just hangs in the air, making the laughs feel earned. The practical effects of skiing scenes are pretty impressive for its time, which adds an authentic feel. It's not groundbreaking, but there's something comfortably nostalgic about it that makes it a notable watch for those into 80s rom-coms with a frosty backdrop.
