Very high heels tap against the pier's wooden slats. Nineteen-year-old Laurine, a beautiful young woman, has come to meet her lover Olivier, who is spending his vacation with his cousins on the small island of Bréhat, just like he does every summer. Laurine quickly becomes the butt of some people's jokes and secretly desired by others.

В промышленном городе Кавасаки, на углу улицы, где раньше жили мои дедушка и бабушка, собираются ставочники на кейрин — велогонки, которые развились в послевоенное время. Они встречаются в крошечном баре, чтобы выпить, поговорить и сделать ставки на велодроме неподалеку. Большинство из них — пожилые люди, которые с трудом зарабатывают на жизнь; они прожили в этом городе всю жизнь. Этот откровенный фильм, снятый на статичную камеру, дает возможность высказаться пожилым людям, которые остались за бортом японской экономики.

This delicate film, shot in a region with a strong Shinto tradition, tries to capture the Shinto emphasis on man's harmony with nature. Without explaining, the film depicts rituals associated with the felling and planting of trees, which are seen as living beings. The film gives equal time to human actions, restrained discourse, trees, the wind and the sunlight, which almost mystically always enters the ritual at exactly the right time.
