Plot summary
Fukagawa plays a girl who returns to her rural hometown in Toyama after failing to make a career in Tokyo. When her grandmother dies and her funeral photo is blurry, she works with her friend in local government (Kora) to take high quality photos of senior citizens. One elderly woman (Yoshiyuki) initially refuses, believing the act of taking a funeral photo to be bad luck, but agrees after Fukagawa offers to take her picture in some place with special significance to her. They rebrand the service as "photographs of memories" and start taking more local seniors on trips to be photographed.{{Cite web |title=深川麻衣主演映画『おもいで写眞』2021年1月公開へ 共演に高良健吾や香里奈、監督は熊澤尚人 |url=https://realsound.jp/movie/2020/10/post-644953.html |access-date=2023-04-08 |website=Real Sound｜リアルサウンド 映画部 |date=28 October 2020 |language=ja |archive-date=2023-08-20 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230820185524/https://realsound.jp/movie/2020/10/post-644953.html |url-status=live }}{{Cite web |title=深川麻衣"遺影写真"撮るカメラマン役で映画主演 高良健吾と初タッグ |url=https://www.oricon.co.jp/news/2175413/full/ |access-date=2023-04-08 |website=ORICON NEWS |archive-date=2023-04-06 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230406202410/https://www.oricon.co.jp/news/2175413/full/ |url-status=live }}{{Cite web |title=深川麻衣×高良健吾「おもいで写眞」ポスター＆予告完成！ 主題歌は安田レイが担当 : 映画ニュース |url=https://eiga.com/news/20201126/1/ |access-date=2023-04-08 |website=映画.com |language=ja |archive-date=2023-04-08 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230408134426/https://eiga.com/news/20201126/1/ |url-status=live }}{{Cite web |title=映画『おもいで写眞』公式サイト。 |url=http://omoide-movie.com/ |access-date=2023-04-08 |website=映画『おもいで写眞』公式サイト。 |archive-date=2023-03-24 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20230324231136/http://omoide-movie.com/ |url-status=live }}
