Also known as Bokutō kidan, Romantický příběh od řeky Sumida, Сказка восточного берега, Удивительная история с восточного берега, 墨東綺譚

A story of Japanese writer Kafu Nagai (1879-1959), a man about sixty with a huge reputation of seducer who falls madly in love for a young geisha named Oyuki. Meticulous and smartly dressed, Nagai patiently wrote in his diary his thoughts during many years. A melancholy reflection on the passage of time and a brilliant interpretive exercise.
