Japanese art at its best, or the perfect receipe to create a true work of art with the smallest budget: this movie, which is almost half a century old, could just as well have been shot yesterday. It seems out of time and eternal, utterly imperishable. Shot in black and white, without any dialogues, featuring two unknown actors, it is a masterpiece of crystal purity, haunting and made even more so by the beautiful soundtrack.
Made by Kaneto Shindô while his producers were close to bankruptcy, this movie is like a long hidden treasure which hasn't lost any of its strange and mysterious fascinating power.
