After Kizuki committed suicide, he left his childhood sweetheart Naoko (played by Rinko Kikuchi) and their good friend Watanabe (played by Kenichi Matsuyama) with irreparable pain. In order to forget the painful memories, Watanabe chose to go to Tokyo to study. In the new environment, Watanabe almost forgot everything in the past until he met Naoko one day. In their common memory, Kizuki is a topic that cannot be avoided, but no one mentioned this person as if they had made an appointment. On Naoko's 20th birthday, it was raining outside the house, and Naoko and Watanabe spent a night in the house. Naoko moved away, and she disappeared from Watanabe's life again. Watanabe's life seemed to have returned to peace again, but his heart was full of guilt for hurting Naoko until Watanabe received Naoko's letter. Watanabe met the cheerful and enthusiastic female classmate Midori (played by Kiko Mizuhara), and the two quickly fell in love, but in Watanabe's heart, there will always be a place for Naoko... The film is adapted from Haruki Murakami's famous novel "Norwegian Wood", and it has attracted much attention since the beginning of filming.
