A poetic masterclass in acting. Hamaguchi Ryusuke directs this quietly observational film about a man who loses his wife, first to infidelity and then to a sudden fatal medical condition. The story effortlessly follows him trying to come to terms with those events, while being driven, in his own car, back and forth to theater rehearsals by a mysterious female driver, who has a haunting past of her own.
