About A Paper Doll's Whisper of Spring
Otane, the daughter of a thread shop owner in Ryogoku, is in love with Sumio, the son of an ivory craftsman who lives nearby. The two are united in a tatami room on the second floor of a soba restaurant. Soon Sumio goes to study in Paris, but during that time Otane realizes that she is pregnant with Sumio's child. Considered a lost film.
Directed by Kenji Mizoguchi, A Paper Doll's Whisper of Spring leans on a strong ensemble — Tokihiko Okada, Yōko Umemura, Kaichi Yamamoto — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about screen titles of 1926.
