Prize of the Ecumenical Jury, Montreal 2014

This is a gentle, high quality film about great moments of life – loss, love, friendship, and community in a Japanese coastal village. With humor and depth, the film celebrates humanity quietly and serenely. The photography is excellent, the direction assured and the film well balanced. In its conclusion, the movie moves away from nostalgia to embrace life.
