标题：缘续他乡
剧情介绍
本片是个奇情浪漫的爱情故事，讲述年青貌美的理代被姑母迫婚，只身由日本远赴夏威夷，与照片中那个年青俊俏的未婚夫松治相聚。抵步后才发觉松治竟是个身无分文，在蔗园工作的中年男人。心灰意冷的理代于是努力赚...
相片的出现，对人们的生活也发生了影响。二十世纪早些时候，人们仅仅通过看看对方的照片，就定下了两个人的婚姻大事，不管这两个人相距多远。  美代，一个年轻的女人，在父亲去世后，就剩下孤零零的一个人在日本，她的一位亲戚帮她也通过照片，定下了一门婚事。从对方的来信中，美代看到对方是一位年轻帅气的小伙子，还在心中写下了一首优美动人的诗歌。带着对美好未来的憧憬，美代只身一人来到了远离家乡的夏威夷。 
可是，来接她的声称是她丈夫的人，却是一位上了年纪，甚至比自己父亲岁数还大的中年男人，这让美代无法相信眼前发生的一切是真实的。原来，这位男人真的是她的丈夫，照片上的年轻人也真的是他，因为他没有近照，只能把年轻时的照片寄去，作为相亲之用。知道了一切原委的美代很难接受事实，她无法忍受自己的下半生都要与这个比自己父亲还老的人生活。经过了一段痛苦的挣扎，在一个与自己一起干活的名叫香奈的女人的建议下，她决心通过自己的勤劳和努力攒下一笔钱还给自己的丈夫，然后回日本。可是，岁月和生活，总是在人们不经意间就会渐渐改变一个人。丈夫的歉疚，悉心的照顾，善解人意地尊重她，还有生活的艰辛让美代的心慢慢地越来越想依靠丈夫。
象征
电影，以夏威夷的拓荒年代为背景，在描述美代的曲折经历的同时，也描摹了一群在夏威夷的甘蔗地劳作的日本劳工的生活，虽然生活艰辛，但是他们的心灵深处同样有着爱情、亲情，对美丽自然的热爱和对未来的美好憧憬。 
同时，我从电影里，隐隐感觉到影片透露出来的一种思想，那就是对家的寻找。失去父亲的美代，在刚来到夏威夷时的诸多不适，让香奈以为她在思念日本的家乡，而美代却回答她自己没有家，这时的家，是美代心目中有亲人，有爱人的地方。可是面对陌生的夏威夷，陌生的丈夫，她却毅然决然地想要回到日本，仿佛日本又成为了心目中抽象的家的象征。最后，生活让美代和丈夫真正的融合在一起，美代道出了，夏威夷，我的家。 
是的，人在面对生活时，往往显得那么地无助,心中对未知的未来充满了疑问，这一切，我们都只有请时间这位智者为我们解答，即使面前的一切看来是那么的不能如愿，时间也会慢慢地为我们揭开生活的面纱，发现，其实幸福，美丽就在我们身边。
