HARU'S JOURNEY (2010)
Haru tono tabi - An insider’s look at Japanese culture through its themes of acceptance, endurance and familial commitment.
Actor Nakadai Tatsuya, as the grandfather, is still as impressive as when he made Kurosawa's magnificent films even more magnificent. It tells the story of elderly fisherman and his granddaughter, who live in a small fishing village in Hokkaido. It is also a road movie driven by family dynamics, as the two set out on a pilgrimage to live in Tokyo.
On the remote northern island of Hokkaido, In a small fishing village, tensions rise between the rebellious 19-year-old Haru and her crippled grandfather, who she reluctantly looks after.
