Joru no kawa

Kiwa Funaki is an independent and successful woman. She creates kimono and tie designs that she markets herself from Kyoto, all the way to Tokyo. Her father, who dyes the textiles in his own factory, would like to see Kiwa married. But she rejects all her admirers, including a young artist and an obtrusive business partner. Then Kiwa meets a scientist from Osaka. Although she knows he is married, she begins an affair with him. But when his wife dies, she does not react as expected. (Berlinale)
