Equinox Flower
Directed by Yasujirō Ozu
Produced by Shochiku
A warm, gently comedic family drama about generational conflict and the tension between tradition and modernity, centered on a father's reluctant acceptance of his daughter's independence.
Wataru's outwardly liberal views on marriage are severely tested when his daughter declares her love for a coworker and is adamant to live her own way, instead of agreeing to an arranged marriage. Outwitted by his female relatives, Hirayama stubbornly refuses to admit defeat.
