Breakup on 22 Years Old

I like this director's movies. I watched this movie that is based on a famous 70's song with the same title.
A 44 years-old salesman met a 22 years-old girl in a convenience store. She sang a old famous song "Breakup on 22 Years Old". The song was that the salesman gifted the song from an old girl friend on her birthday of 22 years old, and they broke up on that day. She said this song her mother's favorite song.
The salesman met the girl again at a park in the night on his way home. He saw she was lighting many candles there. He spoke to her, and they told about each other. He recognized she could be a daughter of the old girl friend....



Breakup on 22 Years Old
Only today, I can say good-bye to you.
If I touch your warm hand again tomorrow, I can't. I suppose..
I couldn't see your figure in a mirror, and I've chosen other little happiness in front of me.

I stood 22 candles on my 22nd birthday.
You said that the candles represent for your life, and we lighted from the 17th candles together. It seems like yesterday.
I have only to say that our 5 years seems too long for me who get married to other.
If you obliged only one I wanted, you must not change yourself...



Japanese Title: ２２才の別れ
