Storyline

Based on Shigematsu Kiyoshi's novel of the same name, the film follows Kenichi, whose wife Tomoko dies shortly after their daughter Miki is born, leaving him to raise Miki alone. Despite his in-laws urging him to remarry and suggesting they raise Miki, Kenichi resolves to care for his daughter himself. From nursery to elementary graduation, the story captures the struggles of a single father and the footprints of his daughter's growth. Although women who could become Miki's mother appear over the decade, Kenichi's lingering love for his late wife keeps him from deciding. It is a heartwarming tale of 'those left behind' and the kind people around the father and daughter.
