YesAsia Editorial Description

The life of poet and children's songwriter Kaneko Misuzu is dramatized in the 2001 biography Misuzu, directed by Sho Igarashi and starring Tanaka Misato in the title role. Kaneko Misuzu's celebrated works revealed a warm and gentle soul that spoke to the children of her era. Sadly, Misuzu died in 1930 at the young age of twenty-six, leaving many questions and a body of excellent work. Sho Igarashi's film delves into the life of Kaneko Misuzu during the early twentieth century, and shows how her love of writing grew through her work at a bookstore, and through her experiences with early literary success and a forbidden love with her own cousin. But the trials of life and love took their toll on the young artist, and her tragic end at such a young age came as a result of an unwarranted disease transmitted by her philandering husband. Finally, on one spring night, a fateful decision is undertaken by the artist herself, forever creating a legacy of a budding artist lost at the height of her creative powers. Featuring potent human drama, stunning images, and a vivid recreation of the Taisho era, Misuzu is a fascinating and loving look at a revered Japanese artist.
