This is a brilliant Japanese movie that you can taste like a cup of tea. It's a good way to reflect about life and death, the slow rhythm and the typical long silences of these movies are well fitted, the drama are well mixed with a few points of comedy, and you can learn a lot about the broken dreams, the moving on in the life, the respect for traditions, the respect for people and jobs, and it's a good example to know more about the Japanese society. It's a good movie.
My score: 8 (out of 10)
