Sinekatalog’s take
Naomi Kawase's film wanders through ancient Nara, linking the stories of a woman, two men and their ancestral landscape. Slow, rich in nature and myth, it is a quiet, impressionistic and often beautiful meditation on time.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
