Ryuichi Sakamoto: Coda is a fascinating glimpse into the life of an extraordinary composer. The film, directed by Stephen Nomura Schible, blends Sakamoto's music with the sounds of nature, creating an immersive atmosphere that's almost meditative. You can feel the weight of his experiences—particularly his passionate anti-nuclear activism that emerged post-Fukushima. There's this raw vulnerability too, especially as he confronts his cancer diagnosis; it's powerful and personal. The pacing is reflective, allowing moments to linger, and the visuals complement the audio beautifully. It’s not just about his work but about the interplay of life, sound, and activism. A unique portrait of an artist grappling with the world around him.
