Abstract
Mr. Thank You: a lighthearted road film follows the rolling wheels of a country bus manned by a driver who says "thank you" to everyone he encounters. Masseurs and a woman: revolving around a pair of traveling blind masseurs who stop at an inn, one of the masseurs, Tokuichi, takes an interest in a woman from Tokyo who seems be hiding a mysterious past. Ornamental hairpin: set at a hot spring resort providing sanctuary to people of vastly different backgrounds and personalities bounded by one thing: their common desire to not leave. Japanese Girls at the Harbor: portraying the evolving relationships of two young women as fate takes them down different roads.
