Ryo (UA) personifies water, since whenever something important happens in her life, it rains. She inherits a bathhouse and meets a pyromaniac named Yusaku. Their confrontation leads to an inevitable union, just like elements of nature blend together.
Movies usually follow a guideline which is usually set by most other movies. Namely Hollywood pieces. Mizu no Onna follows the same guidelines in part, but is otherwise an entirely unique film. It is a very aesthetic movie, and the story lies not in the what is said, but what the viewer sees. It is a movie based on moods and feelings. Watching it will surely inspire any aspirating filmmaker. You will not like this movie if you expect to watch another show following the same guidelines for storytelling as any other movie. This is extraordinary, and extraordinarily beautiful. The performance by UA and Asano Tadanobu, the music by Kanno Yoko, and not least the visuals of this movie in itself makes this a movie one to watch.
