This is Naruse's early piece of romantic tragedy involving two pairs of romantic lovers with their lives destroyed by materialism. Asaji and Yuji are two brothers with a money-minded mother. The two brothers fall for two girls - Kasumi and Tsukiko while their mother have other options for them with the intention of preparing big money and prospect for her two sons.
Family name and responsibility come first rather than romance is the conventional mindset in Japan in the 1930s. (Spoiler Ahead) In the process of rebellion, the elder brother lost hope in future and died tragically with his love interest following him (Resonating the title of the film). Will the mother learn from the terrible experience. Will you as the audience choose the same path. What will happen to the romance of his younger brother Yuji who is under the same spell. Kimi no yuku michi is a nice piece of romantic drama.
