Kobuchizawa Station.

Change here for the Koumi line.

Change here for the Koumi line.

This is Kobuchizawa Station.

Change here for the Koumi line.

Don't forget your baggage.

There will be a long wait.

There is a waiting room for those

continuing on the Koumi line.

Mount Yatsugatake is so beautiful!

And so are the clouds!

The Autumn here in the plateau.

How nice!

Look how old this train is!

- Are we going to take this train?

- Yes we are.

We have fifty minutes before it leaves.

What a bad connection.

This seems to be the terminus station.

How much further do we have left to go?

- How high are we?

- About 800 meters.

The water is so cool!

Great!

The water of fertile Shinano.

Masako, don't you want to drink?

It's really good!

What's the matter, Masako?

Are you tired, Masako?

We have a lot of time.

Let's go for a walk.

Let's explore this town.

Come on, come on, hurry up!

There are a lot of things!

What odd things!

Look at the chestnuts!

- How nice they smell!

- And they look so good.

These would cost double this in Tokyo.

Maybe I will buy some for my mother.

Masako...

I need to buy a roll of film.

Where is there a shop?

Look at how strong that woman is.

Wait for me!

Have you found something?

This isn't bad.

What a surprise. He even has

plastic raincoats.

Welcome.

Our raincoats come directly

from Ginza.

- Would you like one?

- No, thanks.

- Do you have film?

- Yes, I do.

My shop is very special.

I even have color film.

Thanks.

- Where is my change?

- Oh, sorry.

Thanks a lot.

Please, can I take a picture

of you?

Let's go.

What a strange guy.

The train is about to leave.

Wait, wait!

Masako, hurry up!

Hurry!

Take the tickets.

Masako, what's wrong?

Do you feel sick?

- What's wrong?

- Are you okay?

- What's the matter, Masako?

- Are you okay?

- You have a high fever!

- Let's have her sit there.

What may have happened to her?

Hold on, Masako.

What will we do?

What will we do?

- Masako, are you okay?

- What may have happened to her?

The train is gone!

- What will we do?

- What can we do?

- Is there something wrong?

- Can you get a doctor?

I'll have him come here?

- Yes, please.

- But... here?

Is there an inn?

Excuse me, if you want

you can come to our inn.

It's that one.

The doctor is not here yet?

I'll go get him.

Country doctors are so slow.

This town only has 5,000 people.

The doctor is here.

Please, this way.

Thank you for coming

so early in the morning.

- This is Dr. Minami.

- Hello.

- What's wrong with her?

- Please...

What's wrong with her?

It seems a sudden fever.

Nothing is wrong with me.

No, doctor.

She has a temperature of 39.8.

I'm going to examine her.

Take the futon off.

- No!

- Masako.

Masako, let him.

I don't want to!

- Lady...

- No, I don't want to.

I'll do it.

I need to go to the bathroom.

Who are those girls?

University students.

- From Tokyo.

- Really?

The owner is angry.

That Osen brought a sick girl here.

Does this happen to her often?

Yes.

She's always weak.

She often catches a cold.

Maybe because of the job

she had this summer.

Overwork.

It's a light pneumonia.

Am I dying?

Who?

You?

People don't die so easily.

Will she have to go to the hospital?

It's advisable,

but my clinic is full.

There are patients sleeping

on the floor.

Gee, even on the floor.

Is there a contagious

disease in this town now?

No, there are just fewer rooms

than patients.

Here, doctor...

Doctor, how is she?

No need to worry.

She just has to rest for 10 days.

- Osen, Mom is calling for you.

- Coming.

Honey, honey!

- Do me up!

- OK.

Either the clothes shrunk

or I've gained weight.

How sad!

Even as owner I have

to wear last year's clothes.

And on top of that I must go

to this women's meeting.

Honey, why don't you get

any wealthier customers?

The customer upstairs

hasn't paid yet.

And Osen has just brought

a sick student...

How can I help you?

Be careful with the

people you bring home.

I could get into trouble if

typhus broke out here.

I'm the vice president of the Women's

Union and I must watch hygiene.

- Wash her dishes separately.

- All right.

- Mother, I'm going.

- Call me 'mom'.

'Mom', I'm going!

Today I'll be late.

My teacher's Tokyo friend, Mr. Segawa,

will be at today's dancing contest.

Mr. Segawa is a very popular dancer.

Afterwards there's a welcome party.

- I'm going.

- Bring that important guy home.

Of course, madame.

It doesn't matter if we

wash them together.

Osasuri = pagan ritual

If they treated her with osasuri,

she would recover at once.

I could do it, too.

I couldn't leave her.

You remembered your daughter,

didn't you?

Use this one.

Thank you, sir.

- Thanks for coming.

- You are welcome.

Doctor, Masako insists

on staying alone.

If she says so,

there'll be no problem.

I will take care of her.

Take care of her.

- Thanks.

- Come afterwards to get her medicine.

Is this doctor trustworthy?

He completed a brilliant career

at the Nagoya University.

Do you think that Masako

has enough money?

Should we loan her some?

Masako will refuse it.

Then we'll send her something.

I'm going to send a telegram

to Masako's place.

Yes, please.

Sorry.

Please leave, girls.

I don't want to be a burden.

There she goes again...

You never accept the kindness of others.

Leave her alone.

Sometimes it's good to get lost in

your own thoughts while you travel.

Excuse me.

Would you let me to lay

my hands on her?

Then she will heal quickly.

I've got an osasuri degree.

Sit down over there, madam.

I'm going to take a picture of you.

Don't move, madam!

Have you taken photos?

We miss her.

Maybe she shouldn't have come

on this trip.

Her mother didn't want

her to come.

Masako worked all summer

to save money to be able to come.

I am sorry about her

having a stepmother.

She wanted this trip to help Masako

not to rebel against everything.

That maid is very pretty.

And very kind, too.

And there's the doctor

from Nagoya University.

How much suffering.

"How melancholy that cloud is!"

It's about the young woman

Dr. Minami examined.

Yes.

Is the doctor away?

Last night he went to Nagasawa for an

emergency and he hasn't returned yet.

What's her temperature has?

37.5 .

All right, take care of yourself.

We've arrived.

- Welcome.

- I'm back.

Doctor...

I have just received a call

from Yamada Inn.

They would like you

to visit the patient.

Is something the matter?

Nothing in special.

- She has a temperature of 37.5.

- OK.

Miss Tawara, take care of

this boy. His name is Kenta.
