April Come She Will Blu-ray Deluxe Edition

A story of love and parting spanning ten years. Uyuni, Prague, Iceland and Tokyo: April begins a search for a loved one. A deeply affecting love story unfolds on a grand scale.

The long-awaited film adaptation of the best-selling romance novel April Come She Will, which had surpassed 450,000 copies in circulation.

Shun is tormented by Yayoi's sudden disappearance. Following memories of their happier days, he desperately searches for love. Yayoi asks him how to keep love from ending, anxious about losing it. Haru sends him a letter from the Uyuni Salt Flat after ten years, carrying circumstances of her own. Delicate performances convey each person's urgent search for love.

The theme song, Michiteyuku, was written specially for the film around the theme of love. It became a worldwide hit, bringing further excitement to the film.

“At that time, I had someone more important to me than myself. I believed that it would last forever.”

It is April. Psychiatrist Shun Fujishiro receives a letter from his former girlfriend, Haru Iyoda. Sent from the Uyuni Salt Flat, known as the mirror of the sky, it describes memories of their first love ten years earlier. Uyuni, Prague, Iceland: Haru's letters continue to arrive from places around the world.

At the same time, Shun is preparing to marry his fiancée, Yayoi Sakamoto. But Yayoi suddenly disappears, leaving only a riddle: “What is the way to keep love from ending?”

Why has Haru written to him? Where has Yayoi gone? The two mysteries gradually become connected.

“Why do love and romance fade away, even when we thought they would last forever?”

As present and past, Japan and overseas intertwine, April begins a search for the person he loves.

The deluxe edition's making-of footage comes in two parts. The Japan segment is packed with behind-the-scenes footage and comments from the performers, while the overseas segment records filming amid the spectacular scenery of Uyuni, Prague and Iceland.
