“In every sense, a true masterpiece.”
—Shiguéhiko Hasumi

“A film of loose ends, structural surprises, and a general openness to the felicities of pouring rain and falling snow.”
—The New York Times

“TWO SEASONS, TWO STRANGERS captures its characters in the realm of the ineffable, making the mundane utterly sublime.”
—Slant Magazine

Based on two manga by Yoshiharu Tsuge, this film‑within‑a‑film contrasts a summer romance between Yūmi Kawai and local Natsuo with the wintry story of screenwriter Li (Shim Eun-kyung), creatively blocked and searching for connection alongside innkeeper Benzo. A work as profound and delicate as snowfall from Sho Miyake (SMALL, SLOW BUT STEADY). Free Member Monday — free admission for all AFS members on Monday, August 10.
