Super Happy Forever
Bittersweet and delicate Japanese drama about a man who, following the sudden death of his wife, travels to the coastal town where he fell in love with her five years earlier.
The recently widowed twenty-something Sano and his best friend Miyata return to the onsen (hot spring) resort town of Atami in the Izu Peninsula of Japan, where five years ago Sano met and fell in love with his late wife Nagi. Retracing the steps of that fateful vacation, Sano is determined to find a long-lost red baseball cap of significant importance, seemingly chasing a past that has already faded away and shuttered for good.
The minimalist Japanese filmmaker Kohei Igarashi focuses on the small, meaningful moments that shape our lives – such as the search for lost everyday objects. The result is a tender portrait of the fragile human condition.
