Country: Japan
Directed by Hiroshi Teshigahara
I am not sure if I can write for a movie that I watched more than 20 years ago. From what I can recall the film is a rare masterpiece , more bizarre, more meaningful , less heavy than the book of Abe that is based and I was read a few years ago. The sand is 'alive' and the dunes give you almost illusions , the sensuality is raw and vivid, the black and white photography is stunning , the metaphor and philosophical meaning of the story obscure but painfully present. The sand ,with all these designs and geometrical shapes that often takes, is a mysterious labyrinth that in reality is the human brain
