Synopsis
Quartet (カルテット, 2017) — watch online on iFILM — is a Japanese drama series about four strangers who spend a winter together in Karuizawa, a mountain resort town, after a chance encounter leads them to form an amateur string quartet.
Maki, Suzume, Tsukasa and Yutaka — played by Takako Matsu, Hikari Mitsushima, Issei Takahashi and Ryuhei Matsuda — rent a house, rehearse, cook and talk around the things they are not saying. The series is patient with its reveals. It lingers in quiet domestic scenes and pale winter light while the weight of everyone's unspoken past slowly makes itself felt.
Not a thriller, not a conventional romance — it sits somewhere between slow-burn mystery and character study. The four leads carry it. Stream Quartet online on iFILM.
