Description

It's not the journey that counts, but who is at your side. Nana is on a road trip, but he is not sure where to go. All that matters is that he can sit beside his beloved Satoru in the front seat of his silver van. Satoru is keen to visit three old friends from his youth, though Nana doesn't know why, and Satoru won't say. Set against the backdrop of Japan's changing seasons and narrated with a rare gentleness and striking humour, Nana's story explores the wonder and thrill of life's unexpected detours. It is about friendship, solitude, and knowing when to give and when to take. Above all, it shows how acts of love, both great and small, can transform our lives.
