Plot.
Director Yukihiko Tsutsumi wrings laughs out of an unlikely topic -- domestic violence -- in this dark comedy about noodle-shop waitress Yukie Morita (Miki Nakatani), who puts up with the fiery temper, gambling and cruelty of her shiftless, ex-gangster boyfriend (Hiroshi Abe). But as flashbacks reveal, there's a reason behind Yukie's unconditional love for her man. Yûko Natori and Mayumi Sada also star.

Wiki.
Jigyaku no Uta (自虐の詩, lit. "Self-torture Song") is a Japanese manga series by Yoshiie Gouda. The series was adapted by Yukihiko Tsutsumi into a film, known in Japan under the same title and in the United States as Happily Ever After. Viz Pictures licensed the film for release in the United States.
The series follows husband and wife Isao Hayama (葉山 イサオ, Hayama Isao) and Yukie Morita (森田 幸江, Morita Yukie). Yukie works at a noodle shop for long hours while Isao is a lazy gangster. Yukie's friends ask her to leave her husband, but Yukie feels an obligation to him because Isao had initially saved her from misery.
The film aired in a selection of theaters in the United States.
