The film stars Catherine Deneuve as legendary singer Claire who flies to Japan for a final sold-out concert, but as the show comes to an end so does her worldly life.
[3] The film based on an original screenplay, is structured as a three-way production involving companies from Singapore, Japan and France.
In January 2024, production began in Takasaki, an ancient town on Honshu Island between Tokyo and Kyoto, where it continued for 10 days, before moving to other locations.
[2] Allan Hunter, reviewing for Screen Daily, called the film "A simple, sentimental tale with a tendency towards inoffensive whimsy."
Closing his review, Hunter wrote, "The increasing focus on Hayato and his problems tends to push Claire and Yuzo to the sidelines of the story, but ultimately allow Khoo to create a more rounded tale of loss, love and just how precious a thing life can be.
