About In Search of a Lost Writer: Wandering in the World of the Seventh Sense
A drama depicting the world of the female writer Midori Osaki in three parts: the dramatic creation of her masterpiece, "Wanderings in the Realm of the Seventh Sense," her unknown years spent in poor health and poverty, and the present-day world from which we see her work.
Directed by Sachi Hamano, In Search of a Lost Writer: Wandering in the World of the Seventh Sense leans on a strong ensemble — Kayoko Shiraishi, Kazuko Yoshiyuki, Daijirō Harada — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
