Cast Member: Kiyoshi Atsumi

A portrait of quiet hope and self-worth painted with the delicate strokes the director so often uses.

‘A Distant Cry From Spring’ is the very best of Yamada’s themes, contained in a truly beautiful masterpiece that leaves tears in the eye as the credits roll.

‘Tora-San, Our Lovable Tramp’ is a fine introduction to a great cinematic series, one which should be appreciated worldwide.
