In 2012, Atsuya and his 2 childhood friends do something bad and run into an old general store. They decide to stay there until the morning. Late into the night, Atsuya sees a letter in the mailbox. The letter is addressed to the Namiya General Store and the letter was written by someone to consult about worries. Incredibly, the letter was written 32 years ago. The mailbox is somehow connected to the year 1980. Atsuya and his friends decide to write a reply and place their letter in the mailbox.

This is a good premise with a solid execution. Not mind-blowing, but good. It was interesting enough that I didn't keep checking the playback progress on an international flight (ten hours!) where this was one of four Japanese films (three I hadn't seen) offered. Rated **7** instead of 8 because, well, I saw too much of the story coming. It was practically telegraphed in advance. The movie should give you a good dose of feels, nonetheless.

Thank you for showing the world as a better place that worth living in, albeit a fantasy.

A wonderful movie, that will test your patience. It feels a bit slow even compared to other movies based on Higashinos work. But well worth it. I love how Higashino always connects everything in the end, nothing feels random. And that's even harder when time travel is included.
