退休教授皮埃尔来到冲绳旅游,邂逅离家出走的主妇纯子,在短短的旅程中,两人产生了一段不平凡的友谊,也各自打开心结。作为一个拍过多部日本题材并获奖无数的加拿大导演,克劳德·加侬用一部类似《广岛之恋》的异国恋题材,在展现冲绳美丽异域风光的同时,表达了自己对日本文化深厚的理解。加拿大老牌演员加布里埃尔·阿坎德与日本的国际明星工藤夕贵完美阐释了两个孤独灵魂的情感互动,而九十多岁的人间国宝平良敏子在片中也有亮相。Pierre, a retired professor in his early sixties who ends up making a short, unsettling trip around Okinawa with Junko, a 40-year-old runaway wife. The confused intellectual would rather not get involved with this unlikely and unexpected lover but decides to follow his destiny, wherever it (she?) may take him.
