Acclaimed director Yamashita Nobuhiro returns with the 2007 youth romance A GENTLE BREEZE IN THE VILLAGE. Yamashita again takes on a subtle coming-of-age tale, but unlike the spunky wannabe rockers of Linda Linda Linda, the teens in Tennen Kokekko are far removed from the city and ordinary school life. Based on a popular Kuramochi Fusako manga, the film follows a small group of students in a remote rural town, casting a gentle, observant eye on their daily lives and growing pains. Embracing the innocence and insecurities of youth with simplicity, clarity, and sensitivity, A GENTLE BREEZE IN THE VILLAGE is a small, genuine, and gracefully rendered film.
