University student Noriko feels aimless and doesn’t know what she wants to do after university. Her mother suggests she and friend Michiko spend their summer learning tea ceremony from  local teacher Takeda-sensei (Kirin Kiki in her last appearance). They soon realize “the way of tea” a life-long and life- altering endeavor, setting off a transformative journey into the heart of tradition, connection, and family.

A beautiful and heartfelt journey into the most “Japanese” of the arts based on Noriko Morishita’s acclaimed essay.
