Description

[Machine Translation] The headlights caught the smile of a man and a woman, and that was the beginning of their sad love. A middle-aged long-haul truck driver and a waitress working at a drive-in along the national highway. Master director Koreyoshi Kurahara depicts the love and separation of these men and women in their humble lives in five chapters ("Winter", "Spring", "Rainy Season", "Summer", and "Autumn"), weaving in the poetic sentiment of the changing seasons. Based on the novel by French writer Serge Grossard. The music staff includes French artists such as composer Michel Bernhardt, and the film is a moving masterpiece that poignantly expresses the joys and sorrows of life. The cast includes Tatsuya Nakadai as a long-distance truck driver, Miwako Fujitani as a young waitress, Kyouhei Shibata, Yoshiko Mita, Junko Ikeuchi, and Tomisaburo Wakayama, who weave the story with poetic sentiment.
