It's Only Talk (2006)

Synopsis of It's Only Talk

Suffering from manic depression and looking to start life anew in a small suburban community, a manic depressive thirty-something finds solace in the company of her recently-divorced cousin in director Ryuichi Hiroki's intimate psychological drama. Yuko (Shinobu Terashima) has walked away from her life and her job in a desperate bid to seek happiness outside of her comfort zone. Though her friendships with various men including a depressive yakuza and a former classmate suffering from erectile dysfunction does provide some relief from her mental malaise, Yuko soon begins to suspect that she may be slipping into another deep depression. When Yuko's cousin Shoichi shows up on her doorstep having just suffered through a nasty divorce, Shoichi's willingness to assume the role of caretaker to his ailing cousin inspires both parties to take emotional stock of their lives. ~ Jason Buchanan, Rovi
