Need help identifying a film

[Andrew Grant]

For an article I'd like to write --

There was a Japanese film from the early- to mid-90s that played in NYC as part of a "recent films from Japan" series. I can not remember the title nor the director, but the film was about a brother and sister (she, around 20, he 25+) who live together after the parents pass away. There's not much in terms of a story, but it rather focuses on the little details in their lives. One recurring image is of the sister going to get fresh tofu, walking with her silver pot to the outdoor market.

Can anybody tell me the title and/or the director of the film? It's a beautiful film, and I'd love to track it down, if possible.

Thank you.
