Abstract This paper is a discussion about how the sounds (sound effect or noise) that constitute the sound track characterize the story structure in the movie "Tokyo Story" directed by Yasujiro Ozu. "Tokyo Sto...ry" is based on the story structure as "Go and Return". An antinomy for "Here" and "There" exists in this structure. "Here" includes the concept of locality (Onomichi), elderly couple, dream, and death, and "There" includes the concept of central (Tokyo), children, reality, and life as an opposite axis. Each concept is characterized by the sounds. Furthermore, the story structure with "Go and Return" necessarily defines the composition on temporal axis as a cyclic form. Each part that constitutes the cyclic form is also characterized by the sounds.show more
