The Inland Sea
In 1971, author and also film scholar Donald Richie released a poetic travelogue about his explorations of the islands of Japan's Inland Sea, tape-recording his search for traces of a typical lifestyle as well as his very own trip of self-discovery. Twenty years later, filmmaker Lucille Carra undertook an identical trip influenced by Richie's by-then-classic publication, recording images of hushed beauty and conference people that still continued the fading custom-mades that Richie had observed. Interspersed with surprising detours-- a see to a Frank Sinatra-- caring monk, a leper swarm, an ersatz temple of plywood and plaster-- and woven with each other by Richie's narrative in addition to a score by well known composer Toru Takemitsu, The Inland Sea is an eye-opening voyage as well as a profound meditation on what it suggests to be an immigrant.
