Cost: Free; Registration in advance recommendedIn his first film after the commercial and critical success of "Tokyo Story," director Yasujirō Ozu examines life in postwar Japan through the eyes of a young salaryman. Dissatisfied with career and marriage, office worker Shoji Sugiyama begins an affair with a flirtatious co-worker, and he and his wife grow estranged. The film adeptly depicts “the claustrophobia of office life” as “Ozu finds dramatic depths in quiet, ordinary lives” (The New York Times). Description adapted from Janus Films.
Director: Yasujirō Ozu. Country: Japan. Released: 1956. Length: 145 min. Format: DCP. Language: Japanese with English subtitles.
