Description
 
Composer Joe Hisaishi, who has provided the orchestral scores for numerous films from directors Takeshi Kitano and Hayao Miyazaki, directed, co-wrote, and scored this narrative film which tells the story of a university string quartet--Akio (Yoshihiko Hakamada), Tomoko (Sachiko Sakurai), Daisuke (Nao Omori), and Ai (Kaoru Kukita)--whose collegiate competition results in a disaster. After graduation, the quartet splits up, only to reform three years later with the intention of competing as a quartet once again. When the competition finally arrives, one of their members receives a counter-offer to join a famous orchestra. Will this lone member choose to further their own career or work towards the common good of the string quartet? In Japanese with English subtitles.

Joe Hisaishi---Japan---2001---113 mins.
