Overview:	In the vast expanse of an unforgiving land, Kazami Tamiko, a widow who lives only with her young son, struggles to make a living by running a small dairy farm. Life is harsh, yet pleasurable when she finds a congenial companion, Tajima Kosaku. When Kosaku's mysterious past is finally revealed, Kazami resolves on a radial change... A ravishingly beautiful film by Yamada Yoji who steeped social realism in his aesthetic sense, and in which the art of both serenity and speech can be fully appreciated. A Distant Cry From Spring features Montreal World Film Festival Best Actor Award winner Takakura Ken, who gives a flawless portrayal as Kosaku; and Baisho Chieko (Home From The Sea and The Village) as Tamiko.
