Live action drama adaptation of Nakawaki Hatsue's same-titled novel. Director O Mipo won the award for Best Director at the 38th Montreal World Film Festival for The Light Shines Only There. The film won the NETPAC Award at the 37th Moscow International Film Festival.
Okano (Kora Kengo) is a rookie elementary school teacher stressed out because his students won't listen to him. Meanwhile, Masami (Ono Machiko) is in anguish as she continues abusing her own daughter. The lives of people dealing with their own troubles intertwine and they discover hope anew.
