The main character, Satoru, played by Kazunari Ninomiya, and Miyuki, a mysterious woman who doesn’t have a cell phone, played by Haru. The one and only important promise the two of them made after meeting at a coffee shop. “Let’s meet here every Thursday.” In this day and age, where we can easily contact each other via cell phone, we don’t dare to exchange contact information, instead we make it a point to meet only once a week and slowly build a relationship.

This autumn’s most moving film depicts the timeless origin of love – the joy of simply meeting the person you care about.
