The film is very short, like a delicate and bright piano piece. Shunji Iwai may not be a master, nor is the film profound or innovative. However, he recorded that the girl's thoughts were as astringent as green tea, and she had to taste it three cups to know the taste, and then suddenly, she felt something grabbed her chest
.
The film is only about an hour long, and the rhythm is slow and the shots are beautiful. It is an artistic sketch with a strong Shunji Iwai style and beautiful prose poetry
.
The fragmented and fragmented narrative techniques, combined with the lively camera language and fresh and beautiful background music, make "April Story" quite a prose sketch. Although there are gaps and misunderstandings between people in some places, "April Story" is quite relaxed and lyrical, and the shy and innocent secret love seems to be just an urban fairy tale
