The Inland Sea
In 1971, author and film scholar Donald Richie released a poetic travelogue concerning his expeditions of the islands of Japan's Inland Sea, videotaping his search for traces of a typical way of living in addition to his very own journey of self-discovery. Twenty years later on, filmmaker Lucille Carra took on a parallel trip motivated by Richie's by-then-classic publication, catching photos of hushed beauty and also meeting people who still carried on the fading customizeds that Richie had actually observed. Sprinkled with surprising detours-- a browse through to a Frank Sinatra-- loving monk, a leper swarm, an ersatz holy place of plywood and also plaster-- as well as woven together by Richie's narrative in addition to a score by well known composer Toru Takemitsu, The Inland Sea is a mind-blowing trip as well as an extensive reflection on what it implies to be an immigrant.
