A college student Kae, who dreams of becoming a teacher, discovers a notebook in the house she has just moved in. The notebook turns out to be the diary of a woman, Mano Ibuki, who had just started teaching in primary school. Kae becomes absorbed by the woman's pure heart, reading about her life and love. She falls for a painter, Ishitobi, while working at her part time job. As time passes, she finds out an unexpected sad truth. As expected of a melodrama with a dazzling cast and crew list, the film brings the traditional element of pure love and unexpected fate along with the surprise of tragic reversal and desperate moments blended in nicely. An autumn love story that reconstructs the merits of previous Japanese melodramas. --PIFF
