Persimmon

Directed by Dean Yamada

With Sahori Ehara, Aduchi Kaneko, Sakae Kimura, Ai Ozaki and Yugo Saso

Tamotsu is expecting a persimmon to dry and yet he cannot accept that it is time for a man on his deathbed to die. As the persimmon mysteriously, or supernaturally, holds out from drying, so Tamotsu tries his hardest to keep the man alive. Only when Tamotsu has let go can the persimmon take its natural course.
