Description
Yui Kiyohara's slow and graceful film follows a day in the life of three women of different ages as their paths crisscross in a Tokyo suburb.
Yui Kiyohara's follow-up to her acclaimed Our House, Remembering Every Night is a lyrical and whimsical cinematic ode to memory and forgetting, loneliness and connection, daydreams and mystery that moves to gentle rhythms of summer breezes.
Here, Kiyohara immerses viewers in the quiet pursuits of several women, including a wandering university student, a helpful neighborhood meter reader, and a middle-aged gentle soul seeking employment but finding herself agreeably lost instead. Their paths converge or miss one another throughout a solitary sunny afternoon in the overgrown leafy environs of once hopeful Tokyo satellite city Tama New Town.
Exquisitely shot by Yukiko Iioka (Wheel of Fortune and Fantasy) with calming long takes and the occasional drifting camera that seems to have a perspective all its own, Remembering Every Night is a charming, deceptively simple take on the hidden riches of everyday life.
