Their life is demanding but rewarding. Since 1954 they have tilled the soil, following the seasons, listening to nature’s messages: blooming magnolias mean a good harvest, a cuckoo’s song heralds winter’s snows. She calls herself ‘Grandma Taimagura’ and, though her nearest neighbours are 10 km away, they call her Grandma too. Since they got electricity, her husband Kumezou enjoys watching parliamentary debates and sumo wrestling, while Masayo prefers the radio, which won’t distract her from her work. But when Kumezou dies, Masayo finds the hard work begins to seem pointless. Beautifully shot and skilfully edited, Sumikawa’s film celebrates a stillness threatened by modern life, but still quintessentially Japanese. 580 Verzio Film Festival Submission 655 4 Documentary films 260 Japan : |bShin-ichi Ise, |c2005. 041 jpn |jeng 952 |00 |10 |40 |50 |70 |8FL |991024FL |bFL |d2016-11-25 |l0 |r2016-11-25 |w2016-11-25 |yDVD-ROM 952 |00 |10 |2ddc |40 |6FL_RECORD_1129_000000000000000 |70 |8FL |9146371FL |bFL |d2019-02-28 |l0 |oFL Record 1129 |pHU_OSA_00002800.mp4 |r2021-11-04 |w2019-02-28 |yDIGIFILM |zAccess Copy, MP4 format |cAudio Visual 920 01 KXM26QY7 966 True |bHU_OSA_00002800 |cDigitally Anywhere / With Registration
