Plot
Late Spring tells the story of a young woman who, somewhat past marriageable age, lives with her widowed father. She keeps refusing to marry until she is told by her father that he himself wishes to marry. Deeply disturbed, but believing that this is what he wants, she says nothing and in the end, gives in to marriage. The father, in fact, has no intention of marrying. After her daughter has gone to the honeymoon, he returns home and faces his loneliness, most probably for the rest of his life.
