English title: Maborosi.
Synopsis (spoilers): A woman is happily married and one fine day her husband commits suicide for no apparent reason. She remarries in a different town but is still disturbed by her previous husband's final act.
Appraisal: The material here is obviously of superior quality, full of psychological nuances and insights. The direction is able at staging scenes as naturalistically as possible, although the after-sex scene is marred by their wearing underwear. What really mars the film is the excessive distance of the shots, and the unnecessary slowness at some points. All these remarks have already been made in the review (at this page) by IMDb user CountZero313, which is right on the money.
