Comments: Damn, only machine translated subs that are awful. I could follow the story but not much better than I could've with no subs, and in some circumstances they actually confuse matters

Like:

Rin: Shin you are so kind
Shin: No, it's not
Rin: No, it's not

Google always gets personal pronouns wrong, but you can assume Shin responds with (most likely) "No, I'm not". But is Rin's response "No you're wrong" or "Yes, I guess you are not"?

Because of the way Japanese doesn't use pronouns the way English does and because of the way it confirms negatives with an affirmative, we just don't know

A doozy (which is easy to re-translate):

Shin confronts the guy who's been fucking Rin:

Shin: Will you break up with me now?

When he really said "Stop fucking my girlfriend"

Beyond struggles to know exactly what is being said machine translated subs are just way off on rhythm. And rhythm is half of a movie to me. So double damn

This might have been a contender for a Small Asian Film that Succeeds Bigly, but I'll likely never know. Good performances from mid-actors, not too ambitious, inspired soundtrack, and a few montage scenes with sparklers and twinkly lights and twinkly music

I think this director, Kosei Hana, has some personal issues (s)he's working out. If you look at the blurbs for two of the other films here:

With You Again: "... he doesn’t want to have sex because he loves her"
Reality of Love: "... salaryman can’t hold her because of the fact he loves her"

That's pretty much the situation here with Shin and Rin

Something odd I've noticed about Japanese films. If you look at this screencap of the scene where Rin is telling Shin she's pregnant, you see that it's in profile and Rin's hair completely covers her face. We see her face at the beginning and end of the scene but for several minutes of deep emotional shit, we are watching her hair perform

I can't imagine an american actor's agent letting that happen. In the hundreds of Japanese films I've seen, I've seen it dozens and dozens of times. It's a thing

Summary: Three men and women live peacefully in a small town in winter, each day somewhat lacking. Shinichi, who works at a recycle store, just lives every day that comes his way and nothing else.
