Singing with Nami is this quiet gem of a documentary that really pulls you into the life of a woman who’s lived on the fringes, traveling and playing sanshin music since she was a child. It’s a bit rough around the edges, but that’s part of its charm. The pacing allows you to soak in her stories, while the atmosphere is a mix of nostalgia and reverence for tradition. You can feel the weight of her experiences, especially that late CD debut—it's a testament to persistence and passion. The film captures her spirit beautifully, and there are these moments where you just sit back, almost in awe, appreciating her journey and the music that threads through it all. Quite distinctive in its portrayal of aging and artistry.
