Having its international premiere at Busan and winning the Audience Award at Tokyo Filmex, “Silent Rain” is a rather interesting production that uses the “love in the midst of memory loss” concept in order to present a genuine Japanese indie drama.
“Silent Rain” is available from Gaga
Based on the novel “The Forest Of Wool And Steel” by Natsu Miyashita, the story follows Yukisuke, a young bio-archaeologist with a bad leg that forces him to leap constantly. He lives a lonely life, only communicating typically with the head professor of his department in the university and a graduate student who also works in the same office, and Koyomi, a young woman who runs a Taiyaki stall he frequents almost daily. Yukisuke is fascinated by Koyomi, and he eventually strikes a friendship with her that is about to bloom into something more, when the girl gets into a car accident that leaves her in a coma.
