Ocean Waves

海がきこえる
1993 72 min PG-13 Animation · Drama · Romance

Tokyo’s train platforms see plenty of passersby, but Taku’s second glance at a stranger turns into a delayed commuter crush. A delayed flight home sends him rummaging shelves and wheels out a photo that starts a confession mid-air. The movie lands with more nostalgia than epiphany.

Directed by Tomomi Mochizuki · Written by Keiko Niwa

Starring Nobuo Tobita, Yoko Sakamoto, Toshihiko Seki, Yuri Amano, Kae Araki, Jun'ichi Kanemaru
