An award-winning and unprecedented film adaptation of the work of internationally-acclaimed author, Haruki Murukami, director Jun Ichikawa brings to the screen Murukami's emotive tale of solitude and obsession accompanied by a stunning original soundtrack from Academy Award-winning composer and musician, Ryuichi Sakamoto. Starring Issey Ogata and Rie Miyazawa, this unique film is one of the finest adaptations of the work of a major writer ever brought to the screen.
Tony Takitani had a solitary childhood. Used to being self-sufficient, Tony seems to find emotions illogical and immature; until he meets and becomes fascinated by Eiko, a beautiful young woman who, in turn, is fascinated by high end fashion. Eventually Tony marries Eiko, and his life changes. He feels vibrantly alive and for the first time he understands, and fears, loneliness. But Eiko's obsession with designer clothes begins to worry Tony. When he asks her to economize, the consequences are tragic.
