  • 08B5c9e2872f9584a7a6df3ac68
    128 minutes / Color / 2.35 / HD / 5.1 / 2015 SYNOPSIS Mizuki’s husband (Yusuke) drowned at sea three years ago. When he suddenly comes back home, she is not that surprised. Instead, Mizuki is wondering what took him so long. She agrees to let Yusuke take her on a journey. DIRECTOR’S STATEMENT In Japanese, there is a verb for the act of accompanying a dying person, or watching over them until their death. It is called « mitoru ». It remains to be seen if it is possible to translate all the subtleties of this word into a foreign language... Rare are those who have gone through the experience of remaining next to a dying person, delicately taking their hand and feeling a vague mutual intention without ever looking away from their face. Fortunately, I have never been confronted with this myself. But according to those who have, those few days, those few hours spent face-to-face with this person constitute a precious and truly sacred moment of sharing. Inside this moment, the past they have shared, the parts of their respective pasts that the other has never known, but also the future that both will one day experience together – all these moments are evoked, evaluated, and understood. The verb « mitoru » includes this entire process. In reality, this extremely intimate and emotional dialogue takes place at the dying person’s bedside. But in the world of fiction, why not stretch time and space out to however long the process requires, narrating it in the form of a « journey »? This is the audacious premise upon which the original novel Kishibe no tabi was built.
