Tokyo, Late Summer

About This Movie

So, 'Tokyo, Late Summer' is this intriguing little documentary that really captures the essence of Tokyo in a way that feels both intimate and expansive. It’s got that slow, contemplative pacing—like a stroll through the city. There's a lot of mundane beauty here, cemeteries and cats juxtaposed with the bustling trains. It feels like a meditation, with these almost poetic visuals, especially considering it was shot on some expired Kodak Vision2 7218. And the nod to Yasujirô Ozu, visiting his gravesite, gives it this layer of reverence. You can sense the filmmaker's love for the city and its rhythms, which makes it a unique piece in the doc genre. Quite a different vibe, honestly. It’s definitely not your typical documentary fare, which I find refreshing.
