RESTORATION! A film by Yasujiro Ozu, TOKYO STORY is quite simply one of the finest films ever made. Listed at #1 in Halliwell's Top 1000 countdown of the world's best cinema, and voted among the best films ever made in Sight and Sound magazine poll of critics worldwide, TOKYO STORY is perhaps the most powerful reflection on the human condition ever committed to celluloid.

When an elderly Japanese couple travel to a rapidly-rebuilding Tokyo to visit their children, they are met with unexpected indifference, ingratitude and selfishness. As the vastly different priorities of pre-war and post-war generations collide, Ozu's masterpiece deepens into a sublime meditation on family, ambition and mortality. TOKYO STORY is a subtle yet overwhelmingly emotional drama from one of Japan's finest directors, whose masterful eye and scrupulous attention to character has subsequently influenced countless filmmakers around the world.
