Tears for You
A melancholic drama about familial obligation and forbidden love between step-siblings, anchored by a dying mother's wish and set against the backdrop of Okinawa.
A love story about two step-siblings, Yota and Kaoru. Long ago, Yota's mother married Kaoru's jazz-playing father, effectively merging the two families. Unfortunately, Kaoru's father skipped town, and Yota's mother passed away, but not before imparting a dying wish to her young son to take care of Kaoru.
