Au revoir l'été

Oct 19, 2013
Accompagnée de Sakuko, sa nièce, qui prépare son entrée à l’université, Mikie est de retour dans son village natal pour mener à bien la traduction d’un roman indonésien. La langueur estivale de la campagne japonaise est l’occasion pour Mikie, de renouer avec Ukichi, un ancien amant, gérant d’un love hôtel clandestin et pour Sakuko de se rapprocher du timide Takashi, réfugié de Fukushima. L’ambition studieuse de cet été cède peu à peu la place à une rocambolesque ronde affective où la délicatesse et le burlesque ne masquent jamais tout à fait la dureté du Japon contemporain.
