Description
Snehmoy (Rahul Bose) and Miyage (Chigusa Takaku) are pen friends who exchange wedding vows through letters. Fifteen years pass but they never meet. Yet the bond of marriage is strong between them.

How far will you go for love? Saregama brings together the formidable team of Mr & Mrs lyer - Director Aparna Sen and Actor Rahul Bose. Snehamoy, a schoolteacher in the Sunderbans, and Miyage, a young girl in Japan, meet through letters, fall in love over letters, and even get married through letters! They have been married for 15 years, but have never met. A tender, lyrically-told, stunningly-photographed film where Snehamoy and Miyage go the distance for their love. A love poem twisting through moments of happiness, fun, sorrow and sometimes even the bizarre woven admirably by Aparna Sen. "Extremely well crafted story" - Zoya Akthar "It' is a precious little gem, I love the film" - Shabana Azmi "If you have a heart, you will love the film!" - Konkona Sen Shaema

A sweet, touching and poignant love story

A sweet, touching and poignant love story. Excellent acting by a befuddled Rahul Bose, and Raima Sen. Bengali/English dialog was easy to follow with subtitles. Music and songs in the background was approproiate and excellent.

The Japanese Wife - Beautiful Film

The film takes you into another world, at first you feel it is a film set in early 1900's, but it is amazingly a story of recent years, you can imagine how some people of today still live in the yesteryear style, untouched with technology, deep in love, across countries! I love the movie too much to explain! Totally recommend the movie!

To be frank, easily her most well-intentioned but wors...
