Its the question youll always have to answer, no matter your age. Umiko Chino is a 65 year-old retired woman in mourning for her late husband. Remembering how they used to watch films together, Umiko goes to the movie theater for the first time in years, where she meets Kai, an attractive, ambiguous young man who studies filmmaking at a nearby art school.They would seem to have nothing in common, except for this-both of them sometimes like to look more at the way the audience reacts to a movie than the movie itself. Kai believes Umiko has the same deep desire he possesses to experience how people respond to something they made and challenges her to stake the rest of her life discovering that thrill.Soon Umiko surprises herself by enrolling in the same film school as Kai. But sailing into this new sea, shes suddenly inside the currents of her fellow students lives, a much younger generation that she struggles to understand, driven by their own passions and their own relationships. Whos really experienced at life, and is it old age or observation that brings wisdom? And does what youre looking for change when you look with your eyes instead of through a camera lens?
