About
You can stream Floating Clouds (1955) on Criterion Channel with a subscription.
A married Japanese forester during WWII is sent to Indochina to manage forests. He meets a young Japanese typist and promises to leave his wife. He doesn't and after the war, she turns up and the affair resumes.
While most wartime romances lean into sentimental patriotism, this quiet study focuses entirely on the messy, lingering wreckage of an affair. The lush scenery of Indochina serves as a beautiful, indifferent backdrop to a connection that refuses to die even as the world rebuilds itself.
