Maborosi 鈥� Hirokazu Kore-eda, Japan (1995) 110 min. FREE AND OPEN TO THE PUBLIC
Kore-eda, considered the heir apparent to the great Japanese director Yasujir艒 Ozu, brings 鈥渜uiet鈥� cinema to the present as he subtly examines the inner lives of his characters. Based on the story 鈥淢aborosi no hikari鈥濃�斺�淚llusory Light鈥濃�攖he story follows a young widow and mother as she moves from her lonely life in the bustling city of Osaka to pursue an arranged second marriage with a man in a remote fishing village. The village community and seaside landscape help her to move through a complex emotional evolution. With surprising cinematographic choices and richly realistic acting, the film feels like a painting come beautifully to life as we contemplate its explorations of the nature of grief and healing, and the role of place in those emotional experiences. In Japanese with English subtitles.
