Only Yesterday (1991) Netflix US

Only Yesterday

Set in 1982, Only Yesterday follows 27-year-old Taeko Okajima, a single office worker from Tokyo who leaves the city for a visit with relatives in the countryside. As she travels and settles into the slow rhythms of rural life, memories of her childhood in the mid-1960s—schoolyard crushes, awkward first romances, the pangs of puberty, and ordinary schoolday frustrations—come rushing back. Meeting a young farmer named Toshio and moving between present-day scenes and vivid flashbacks, Taeko reflects on who she has become and whether her adult choices match the hopes and dreams of her younger self. The film is a gentle, nostalgic meditation on memory, identity, and the decisions that shape a life.
