First I will say it stands listed here as a comedy. Either I have lost my sense of humor or it is not a comedy. I would rather call it a drama with a romantic subplot.
Yuko travels to Tokyo to live with her family. Right before leaving she is told that her mother is her Fathers mistress. Then the rest of the movie is based on how the family and Yuko lives with this complicated situation and Yukos search for her real mother.
The movie is in beautiful colors and the story and the characters are interesting. Ayako Wakao that plays Yuko is certainly a charm to follow and in my opinion it is a well acted movie from all. Even though the movie have serious topics it is handled in a light and smiling way so it never gets depressing.
I would recommend this movie to people that is interested in Japanese culture and customs. It is in my opinion above average and neither too light or heavy in the drama section.
