Very nice slow movie about hot water, about japanese way and about what's really important in life. I am a hot spring/hot bath lover but this movie is for everyone.
As in many other things the Japanese had made an art of ordinary things, in this case of taking a bath. But this movie is not promoting nor judging. It's showing all sides. There's a story, it's also a comedy. The characters are likeable, understandable. You will remember this movie days after you see it, especially if you try to tell about it to a close friend, you than will appreciated even more. So i recommend this movie to everyone who ever took a bath.
Plot summary
Two estranged brothers inherit Marukin Hot Springs, a small-town bathhouse. One sees it as an homage to their late father; the other—a struggling architect—as lucrative real estate for condos. Their eclectic collection of townsfolk customers show them the value of the bath goes way beyond a scrub and soak.
