Yui Kiyohara's follow-up to her acclaimed Our House, Remembering Every Night is a lyrical and whimsical cinematic ode to memory and forgetting, loneliness and connection, daydreams and mystery that moves to gentle rhythms of summer breezes. Here, Kiyohara immerses viewers in the quiet pursuits of several women, including a wandering university student, a helpful neighborhood meter reader, and a middle-aged gentle soul seeking employment but finding herself agreeably lost instead. Their paths converge or miss one another throughout a solitary sunny afternoon in the overgrown leafy environs of once hopeful Tokyo satellite city Tama New Town. Exquisitely shot by Yukiko Iioka (Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy) with calming long takes and the occasional drifting camera that seems to have a perspective all its own, Remembering Every Night is a charming, deceptively simple take on the hidden riches of everyday life.

Press Quotes
The film is a gentle evocation of contemporary Japanese life in its pleasures and frustrations.
— Jake Cole , Slant Magazine
Remembering Every Night is an ethereal experience that shouldn't be missed. It reminds viewers that cinema is a visual art first and foremost and that the composition of the frame and movements within it often speak much louder than words ever can.
— Sumner Forbes , Film Threat
