Tatsuo and his daughter Haru run Takano Tofu Store in Onomichi. When Tatsuo discovers he is ill, he worries his daughter will be left on her own and, unbeknownst to her, sets out to find Haru a match. Although the plot could fill (and already has filled) quite a few family dramas, here, with the magnetic the presence of veteran Tatsuya Fuji (Empire of the Senses), the main character is given a sophisticated characterization, which fills the plot with an earnest dimension.—Jerusalem Cinemateque
