Synopsis

Based on a semi-autobiographical short story of the same title by Nobel Prize–winning author Yasunari Kawabata (in English translation, "The Dancing Girl of Izu"), the two-part drama tells the story of a young student who spends his holidays in the hills of Izu where he comes across a troupe of dancers. Fascinated by their gypsy life, he joins them for a few days and falls for the youngest dancing girl. A tentative love grows between them, but both know that this is on borrowed time and that the student has to return to his life of learning and eventually a highly paid career.
