Wiki.
Big Joys, Small Sorrows (新・喜びも悲しみも幾歳月, Shin Yorokobi mo Kanashimi mo Ikutoshitsuki) is a 1986 Japanese film directed by Keisuke Kinoshita, revisiting his melancholic earlier work, Times of Joy and Sorrow (1957), of a lighthouse keeper and the transient lifestyle he and his family endure. Shot at 10 different lighthouses, four temples, and various scenic locations (including two of the famous Three Views of Japan (日本三景)), spanning the length of Japan from Kyushu to Hokkaido, the film serves a secondary purpose as an insightful time capsule travelogue of early 1980s Japan. It is Kinoshita's 48th and last film.
