Synopsis by Clarke Fountain
Shuji's life has taken a steady downward course from the very day he was in a railroad accident. He progressively loses his job and his wife and eventually loses even his career. However, from the day the rescue workers took him to the hospital after the accident, he has had a compelling, haunting relationship with a woman who was in the hospital room with him. Every seven years she reappears in his life. Every seven years, she is seven years younger. This poetic drama is based on a novel by Taichi Yamada.
