Tomorrow Will Be Fine Weather

Directed by Hiroshi Shimizu

With Michitarō Mizushima, Sachiko Mitani, Wakako Kunitomo, Shinichi Himori and Seijirô Mayama

Lost for 70 years until 2022, Shimizu’s second postwar film recalls Mr. Thank You as he frames the narrative in a familiar setting, tracking an autumnal bus ride from a hot spring town through a mountain pass. When the jaunty bus unceremoniously breaks down, a bittersweet sadness overcomes the passengers as unexpected reunions take place, but nothing can be what it was before the war.
